Whenever i sign in on messenger, it asks me if i want to accept or block users that are already on my contact list or that i have accepted or blocked recently is there a reason it does this?

yup

the reason is i believe in my opinion is some server issue's @ M$ lol

dunno whats going on thou only thing i no is its not client side issue. as its happening to mor en more people everyday been like that on mine for at least 5days now.

mmm thought it was something to do with me using 8.1, because its only been doing it since i upgraded :\

First make a backup of your contactlist by going to Contact > Save instant messaging contacts in main WLM menu (just incase). Next try the following:

Close down Messenger if it's running. Click Start > Run, and type:
%userprofile%\contacts
<enter>

If nothing appears in the folder, click the Tools > Options > View tab, click 'Show hidden files or folders' and click OK. Once you are able to see the folders, right-click the one that corresponds to your Passport and choose Delete.

Next, click Start > Run, and type:
%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live Contacts
<enter>
Remove the corresponding folder again in this folder.

Restart Messenger, notice signing in will take a bit longer as it has to get your contactlist from the server again (we deleted the cache).

Please post back if this helped or not.

i had the same problem as Shadow. i tried your advice and it worked. when i get 100 posts i'll give you a possitive.

this is surprising because i'm logged on to multiple computers over the pasted 5days.

some for the first time.
