It does solve the issue...
The viclient log contains the detailed errors but it's above my understanding to check where it goes wrong.
I don't think is has anything to do with the part containing: "HTTP port not received yet" because I also see that particular message in the log file when the plugin is removed.
This is the faulty log but since the issue has been solved by installing the version 5 client I don't expect to see a hotfix except if other issues will surface when using client 5 with vCenter4.1
