chat logs renamed to .old.txt by Vazza on 02-22-2005 at 11:51 PM
Hi guys
Didn't see this anywhere else so.....
There have been a few folk on IRC tonight with this problem. This is from one person who I managed to get details from....
There is a file created with the log of for example, a chat between the user and say, a.n.@other.com. After a while this file gets changed to a.n@other.com.old.txt and a new file will be created with a.n@other.com and this continues. In the end, it overwrites previous chat logs.
this was first noted 2 versions ago....
Windows Version: Windows Xp Sp2
MSN Messenger Version: 7.0.0425
Plus! Version : 3.40.112

This kind of thing happens when switching ANSI <-> Unicode in the preferences. Thsoe two modes can't be mixed so Messenger Plus! is forced to create a new file to be able to log.
