Due to changes in how Windows Live Messenger acts, it is no longer possible to see when a contact opens a conversation with you. Even if you run MSN Messenger 7, the open conversation notification won't be accurate.
Messenger Plus! has been rewritten from version 3 to version 4, it has changed in many ways. Plugins are now replaced by Scripts, that you can edit yourself.
You can download a lot of scripts here, from the Messenger Plus! Live website.
Also Stuffplug has been rewritten, this time it's not a plugin/script for Messenger Plus!. It's now it's own program, and doesn't require Messenger Plus! (you can run both at the same time though).
Visit Stuffplug.com for the latest version. The DP and Smiley features are no longer available with Stuffplug, since Windows Live Messenger resizes the images on your friends computer. So if you make them bigger, they will remain in normal size (96x96 pixels) for your contacts.
