The setup I downloaded is 418 kb... and it downloads the full package from the servers. And that's horrible, unless it detects that I have already installed a previous version and only download some files to patch, I'm not convinced of using web installers for the Plus! installation  |

?????????
Are you sure you're downloading Messenger Plus! from http://www.msgplus.net/ ?
AFAIK, there is no webinstaller. All the different setups (different included sponsors) are full standalone files ranging around 7 to 9MB. Can you provide the exact download link you're using?

I've been monitoring all links every two hours since the release (actually even before it was published on the site), and no webinstaller or change or re-upload has ever been detected. I'm sure Menthix can back me up on this as he monitors the download links too.
Not saying it isn't true, but I have my strong doubts about that claim.
If it was so, then yes, that is extremely dodgy.

in this case your wrong Cookie. i know i downloaded the 418kb file myself but i deleted it, my guess Yuna has covered up there tracks by releasing the full installer |

Recover it from your trashcan then. Or run an undelete tool.

All the published file server dates of all the different links available to download have not been changed since March 7th/8th GMT (depending on what sponsor-flavor you've downloaded). If a webinstaller was re-uploaded after that and then the full installers again, that server date and time would have been updated.
