That Messenger Plus! is not working can be caused by many other programs. SweetIM and SmileyCentral are only 2 of the most common causes.
See
here for a list of more programs which do no behave properly or have other issues and thus cause Messenger Plus! to malfunction.
Note that this list is by no means complete. So, make sure you have properly uninstalled (note 'properly uninstalled', not just removed) all other Messenger add-ons to start with, to find the culprint.

Messenger Plus! does not have a '
Windows service'.
However, it has a running process named "
PlusService.exe". Though the name might indeed be confusing in this case, because it is not a
Windows service, it is just a normal process that is running most of the time. It is used to diagnose certain installation problems (although it seems to fail to diagnose your current problems) and to check for updates.
