RE: Wrong Entry in Registry
Yes, you are right. But i think Patchou did this on purpose so that when you update from Plus! 2 to Plus! 3 you'll keep all your settings. He could have had his installer rename "msgplu2" to "msgplus3" at the begin of an install, but oh well Patchou is lazy sometimes too i guess :).
Finish the problem

For backwards compatibility with other programs may be.

Precisely. The first beta versions of 3.00 renamed the MsgPlus2 key but it created a lot of problems for some plugins and other applications that rely on Plus!.
