It's probably not a really big issue, but...will Messenger Plus get any bigger in size...Version 3.25 currently stands at 9.25 MB on in the Add/Remove status, and 3.40 stands at 9.43 MB...Not a real big issue, but just a question.

Yes, the next version may be around 30mb when installed. Messenger Plus itself will get a bit bigger than the installer. I doubt it will ever get extremely large though, but yeah, it will keep getting bigger...

You can save space by removing "Setup.dat" in Plus folder (that's the installer) and all the languages you don't use in the "Resources" folder, but 10 MB isn't that much

isn't Setup.dat used for the uninstall?

It's like I said, it's not a big issue...I have an 80GB hard drive for crying out loud and only used 4.6 GB of it so far....so space for me isn't an issue....yet...but it was just a question, and not a real concern.

It's used for the "share" feature, which I can't find right now

setup.dat is what is sent (after being renamed) when you "share messenger plus"

Plus button in convos > Share one of your files > Messenger Plus!

I just did a little equation, and if Plus progresses the way it does by average, no one on your lower end computers should have storage concerns (even small amounts) until 2125...and that's not taking into account the increase in hard disk size.

What? certainely not.. the next version won't be much bigger in size than version 3.25, I'm always making sure the setup package is as small as possible.

We're talking about the installed size, not the installer; at least I think that was what he said. Also I was using the BETA installed size as a judge, I don't know if it will be that size when the debugging software is gone...
