O.P. FreeImage.dll
After updating to plus!3 my plus!2 folder is left..wondering why, i crosschecked the files and since all files (includin plugins folder) were copied to plus!3 folder i tried to delete C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! 2 ... that resulted in a warning that FreeImage.dll was still in use. I closed messenger then deleted the folder..after doing that Plus doesnt recognize the plugin folder (plugins is coloured grey in plus), so i put the folder back. Moving FreeImage.dll from plus!2 folder to Plus!3 folder didnt work either (ofcourse i renamed the original FreeImage.dll in plugins folder of Plus!3 first so i could rename it back if it didnt work)....so something in plus is refering to that particular dll in that particular folder. What can be done bout this?

RE: FreeImage.dll
FreeImage.dll is used by Screenshot Sender.  It should load the FreeImage.dll from the same place as the SS.dll so that means that SS.dll is being run from the plus 2 folder.

Have you tried having SS.dll and FreeImage.dll in the Plus! 3 plugins folder and registering ss.dll?

Thanks Dempsey that did the trick (Y) On deleting plus!2 folder i came across a few other dll's that couldnt be removed (LN.dll & MSSpeechForMSGPlus.dll) i registered those same way an after that (and restarting MSN messenger) i could remove plus!2 folder entirely (without closing messenger first to check if any other files are still in use) an plugins isnt coloured grey anymore :)

Btw: installation of plus!3 already copied the dll's to plus!3 pluginsfolder so i did not need to move em.
