No, there is no way Messenger Plus! could have any security flaw that would let non-allowed software to connect on your computer.

Plus! won't have a flaw itself that will allow this to happen because it doesn't let those exe's be run if they are not digitally signed. He can't account for any other method of these things coming in, like the http connection. If something comes in that way, it's not a Plus! flaw, but a flaw in whatever it is Plus! is using to connect elsewhere, is it not?
As I said, I am talking about exploits in a general way. Nothing specific. If xyz vulnerability is found in Plus! and that vulnerability is exploited, the FAQ states blanket security and that is not true. If some hacker uses the exploit to attack a corporate network, they'll look for someone to blame. If they find your FAQ and it says "No, there is no way for you to get hacked through Plus", they'll sue your asses until you're homeless.
