Messenger help (Need expert help)? by apestillrules on 05-31-2009 at 05:04 PM
Right at the top (categories, online/offline)
UPDATE: I've added a "before" pic
BEFORE (THE WAY ITS SUPPOSED TO BE) - http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd217/arfanrauf/BEFORE.jpg
PICS (RIGHT NOW)- http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd217/arfanrauf/OMGWHATSWRONG.jpg
It should say 15/2600 in Other contacts
How do I expand it to show how many contacts I really have both online/offline OR GET RID OF THESE DAMN DOTS?

From what I've seen on the screenshot, I think the text "2600" is too long to fit in the label thingy. Could you confirm this on another PC?

Also, a second ago it changed back to what its meant to be..like in the above pic..completely randomly..i didnt do anything.
So to test it..I signed out and back in. It was back to the dots again when I signed in. ARGH

That's weird.. Could you try placing the mouse into specific regions and see what happens? (e.g. moving from the task bar onto the contact list).

Stays the same.

A number of people have had this issue before, and probably still do (I have it too). It seems to be some kind of bug within Messenger, and only fixes itself intermittently. I guess there's not much we can do about it unless the Windows Live team release a new version of Messenger.

(and the more peeps do this, the more chance there is the bug will be fixed)

I sort of meant patches or skinning etc., but you do have a point
