About ZoneAlarm... I don't recommend it to anyone, even beginners. I've seen that ZA can be actually a security issue. A hacker who starts a DoS attack (like packet storm) against someone with ZA installed will make it hang (100% CPU use), making your computer very slow and the connection will drop. Without ZA, you'll experience lag but it's harder to get your connection dropped.

No, Windows Messenger doesn't start (I can't see it in the taskbar), but the process is running for sure. Will the File Transfer Plus be able to run without this msmsgs.exe running in future? Sometimes I can see the Windows Messenger (You have signed into MSN via another program etc.) above the taskbar, when the copmuter starts. And sometimes when I close MSN Messenger, my account stays signed in (maybe because Windows Messenger signed in or something). I hope that I won't have to see this msmsgs.exe process again in future FTP releases, because I just hate it !
The plugin will use msmsgs.exe if available in C:\Program Files\Messenger for better integration with MSN Messenger. But it will run as a background process, so it shouldn't signin instead of MSN Messenger.

You can send any file type via File Transfer Plus in MSN 7, the limitation does not apply.
