This morning I fixed the problem with the default settings which caused any of the settings which are on by default, to be on no matter what. Even when the user would turn them off, the plugin would ignore the user setting which was being saved correctly, just ignored being ignored by the during the default check.
I also finished removing the jQuery-Validate plugin as it is no longer used as well as a bunch of debug code and functions which are no longer used. Updates should appear on your Dashboard soon and it is already available for download in the WordPress plugin repository.
