Answer #1

It was probley a bad version of PLUS update - try restarting your computer and if that doesn’t make it work then uninstall it then but it bad in.

Answer #2

this is called “Boss Protection” when you enable this (with ctrl+space by default) the msn icon in the systray changes to a different icon (which you can specify in plus preferences) simply double click on this new icon and all the windows will magically reappear :P also in plus preferences (in the privacy tab) you can disable it by unticking the box or change the shortcut.
