small floating contact bug by Taulin on 12-05-2004 at 05:10 AM
on windows 2000 if you ahve floating contacts and you lock your computer if that contacts status changes while the computer is locked then the icon on the floating contact doesnt change
ie, contact goes from online to offline when the computer is locked and when you unlock it then the floating contact still shows the online icon on the floating contact window
Windows Version: Windows 2000, 5.00.2195

i have a similar problem in win2k that the floating contacts do not update on contact status changes (regardless of locking the workstation) which never used to happen previously, the only difference i can think of is that I now have SP4 installed for win2k.

I have the same problem as Taulin : no update when Windows (2000 SP4 FR) is locked. And if a contact connects to Messenger while Windows is locked, his floating window appears black when I unlock again (see screenshot). It happens very often, nearly every time.
