RE: Two Identities In Add/Remove Programs
This my seem stupid but there is no plus! logo on the add/remove page. Could this mean plus! has become corrupt somehow?

That could easily be caused by a screwy registry entry.
Download advanced uninstaller from www.downloads.com uninstall it with that, and then do a registry clean & tune using it. Then reinstall it and see if it happens...

Very likely, and probably in the registry...

Maybe you should check HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall in the registry and see if there are actually 2 keys for MsgPlus! there, and if so, compare them.

Messenger Plus! only writes in one uninstallation key. I really think your registry is having some problems (and yes, you should see the Plus! icon there too).
