2.21.54 Version - 06/09/2003
  • Full compatibility with the new MSN Messenger 6.1.
  • Full compatibility with MSN Messenger 5.0.575 (Windows 95 release).
  • Some translations have been improved.
  • New translation added: Hungarian.
  • When the /all command is used, tags are now interpreted differently for each chat.
  • The Initialize() function of C/C++ plugins isn't called in a different thread anymore (it make things easier if you want your plugin to display a window.
  • The title of chat windows is now always updated correctly to remove multi-format tags from contact names.
  • Some people are experiencing problems with their encryption password (Messenger Plus! refuses a valid password). The reason of this problem has yet to be found, however, if you get the bug with this new version, you'll have a workaround: go in the Preferences, click the "Change" button and reenter your password (same one or a different, your choice). This will reset Messenger Plus! internal settings so that you can continue to use your password as if nothing happened.
  • The "Old Password" field has been removed. Instead, the "Change" button is disabled when you're not signed in.

.21.55 Version - 09/09/2003

The 3rd Boss Protect setting is now loaded correctly when Messenger Plus! starts.

Custom Name feature improved for MSN Messenger 6.1. This new version of Messenger displays contact emails instead of their names by default in the chat. It's now replaced by the real name of the contact (as Messenger 6.0 did).

New Custom Name option available with MSN Messenger 6.1. You can select a "grey check" (or "square check" if you're using Windows XP) when you enable Custom Names. Doing so will force the custom name to be displayed in the chat window.

Important bugs have been fixed concerning the use of "/me" tags in a contact name.
The Share Files feature is now working fine in MSN Messenger 6.1.

You can more easily use the /run command with command line parameters now.

The roll eye emoticon has been added to the Quick Icon panel.

The Quick Text have been improved. You can now specify up to 20 different text or commands. To do so, simply create a new line and start it with the '#' character. This can be used to quickly chain several operations. Advanced users can even specify the delay between operations: after the '#', specify a digit between 1 and 9 (seconds) and put another '#'. If you don't specify a delay, the default is 0.5 seconds.

Example 1:
#Look at my new name!
#/nick SuperName
#do you like it?

Example 2:
#In 5 seconds I'll check your web site
#5#/run http://www.msgplus.net

Plugins that return text in ParseCommand() and ReceiveNotify() can use the same mechanism described above for Quick Texts to chain different actions.

Don't you read? Or are you one of the people that just clicks away the continue buttons with out reading anything.
#2.3 Geo on 10 Sep 2003 - 22:19
dumb wank, you can only choose not to install it with 'custom install'.
#2.4 EvilSeph on 10 Sep 2003 - 22:27
urm, who said so? try installing it without using custom install.....
#2.5 Geo on 10 Sep 2003 - 23:02
Im not doing that again..automatic install is meant to be faster!, not "install spyware please"
#2.6 EvilSeph on 10 Sep 2003 - 23:07
Actually Custom install just allows you to pick the directory where you want to install the product and which type of encoding it should use for logs (Windows XP). Automatic automatically sets those things at optimal levels afaik and either way you _still_ get the sponsor agreemnt dialog shown.
#2.7 Hova on 11 Sep 2003 - 01:53
You're the idiot. I do auto installs all the time. It still pops up the security warning.

/me chalks up another ignorant user.
#2.8 Geo on 11 Sep 2003 - 02:56
Your installing it all the time?
whos the idiot now
#2.9 Hova on 11 Sep 2003 - 06:05


Seriously, you're an idiot.

If you use automatic install, the sponser window pops up. If you use custom install, the sponser window pops up. I deselect the damn sponser and install it. No sponser, no spyware, no fuss. And you are still an ignorant user, dumbass.

I do this everytime Plus! updates. Now go do something simple with your time, it seems like clicking an arrow off is too hard for your belligerant ass.
#2.10 Godzilla on 11 Sep 2003 - 07:30
Hova, are you playing stupid or something? Read what you've said vs. what geo has said, your the one being the idiot. Oh right, most Plus! users are
#2.11 Hova on 11 Sep 2003 - 12:40
some people shouldn't comment when there isn't any reason to. thanks.

He said if you did an auto install, the sponser window (where they ask if you want to install the sponser) doesn't show up. It does. Everyone is telling him that.

Now find a playpen or something.
