Do you have Messenger Plus! installed? If not you posted in the wrong forum.

If you do, do you have any scripts installed?

Scripts are add-ons for Plus! - find the Script Menu button (three blocks, stacked) on the contact list, then go to Script Preferences to see if you have any installed.

DWM is Desktop Window Manager (it's what runs Aero in Windows 7)...  mine's running at ~70000k, and I also have Explorer running at ~38000k and ~33000k, so I don't think that would be the problem.

No, our point was that it might be scripts that are interfering with the Messenger process, but that won't be the case if you don't have any.

Do you have any other Messenger add-ons, such as MessengerDiscovery, SweetIM or SmileyCentral?
