Latest Changes
- The Messenger Lock feature has been fixed. A new icon is added to the tray in Windows 7 if an unlock keyboard shortcut is not specified

- The default Messenger Lock icon in Windows 7 has been changed to blend in better in the new UI (hourglass: shell32.dll,323)

- Note: the jump list of Messenger will work properly when using the Multiple-Accounts (polygamy) option but you'll get the options for only one of your Messenger clients

- Tabbed chats display a proper preview (peek) picture with a list of currently opened chats. Chats waiting for input are colorized in the thumbnail and Alt+Tab or Win+Tab combinations also display the proper picture

- A couple of other minor fixes here and there to make the Windows 7 experience complete

- The settings of your scripts and skins can now be exported from the preferences panel and re-imported back

- Only the settings of the scripts/skins are exported and not the scripts/skins themselves

- As far as scripts are concerned, only the scripts that put their settings where they're supposed to (see MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath) will be concerned by this new feature

- This version, you will see a new golden icon in your Messenger toolbar. Those who participated in the contest 2 years ago will probably remember what this is

- A "Play and Win" menu has been added in the contact list

- The 2009 Contest is not open yet, it will be in about a week from now. Remember to give it a try in July

- The bug present in beta versions of IE8 has been fixed in IE8 Final. The workaround for displaying long chat logs in the Log Viewer has been removed

- Navigation arrows are now added in Windows 7 for tabbed chats, below the Aero Peek thumbnail in the task bar. Use them to switch from one chat to the next

- Fixed: the background of the title bars of Messenger Plus! windows does not display correctly with bright colors

- When a directory is selected in the Log Viewer, the log currently displayed is removed from the screen

- Fixed: default Messenger sounds for event notifications and new external emails aren't played by Messenger Plus! in Messenger 2009

- Scripts. Fixed: scripts may be automatically started and marked as "running" the first time Messenger is restarted after a script has been updated, even if the script is disabled

- Skins. Fixed: new border areas specified in do not work in Messenger 2009 Final

- Skins: Fixed: the element in is not used if specified without any other meta data

- A couple of stability fixes. Runaway, from the river to the street

Reviewing 4.81.358 (Mar 23, 2009)

The fact of the matter this author initially used deceptive dialogs (that have been clarified in more recent versions) to install the adware AND pushed adware to users during an online upgrade without a consent or asking their permission, along with hiding himself using domains by proxy as a domain name shield service should speak for his lack of integrety...
Not worth the risk vector

if ur 13y/o and love chatting on msn (wlm) then you NEED this!

if your a noob and end up with adware after installing this.. you should of picked the misleading sounding option that reads: "I refuse to support", sounds mean, but thats the choice that does NOT add adware :-)

No adware if you dont want it to be adware.
3 stars because of removing support to remove the ad's.

Hey n00bs....it's adware only by CHOICE! The developer has been kind enough to allow you to choose to install the adware or not. I never do and the program works just the same.

For me it works great, and having tabbed chats is marvelous.

The adware is optional, so for those confused by choices this isn't something you should use (as can be seen from the commenters below).
