It sounds bad but if there are no way to make the detection automatic a separated button will be ok
If I can make a suggestion, can't you use the same way msgplus uses for its detection?
the transfer plus plugin could send a checking command from sender to receiver before start sending (like msgplus does with ping command) so if the receiver answers, plugin is installed and transfer can starts, if he doesn't answer plugin is not installed so the transfer automatically switch to standard messenger protocol

Oh... I understood, don't worry maybe you will fix it when Visual Basic 7 released ehehhe
