Plus! uses the Windows Cryptographic APIs to encrypt the logs using a salt key and a user provided password. This can be done in various bit strengths (2048 is the highest being used at the moment if I'm not mistaken; but even the lowest one gives more than enough protection).
PS:
If you mean with "can they be broken" if there is a way to decrypt them without knowing the password, then no (thus what djdannyp said).
If you mean if they can become corrupted, then yes. As with all files they can become corrupted due to various reasons (eg: hard disk failure/bad sector, etc). When they become corrupted your chances to decrypt them (with the proper password) becomes very slim, although not impossible in some cases. See
Encrypting, decrypting etc. of Plus! chatlogs.
