O.P. Tabbed chat - single chat window behind when dragged
Hi guys, I'm using the latest Messenger Plus (5.01.0.706) and WLM 2009 (14.0.8117.416).  Windows 7 x64 too, and I've set WLM to Vista SP2 compatibility so I can have the icon in the taskbar.

I've noticed although tabbed chat works if you try and drag that tabbed chat window you can see a SINGLE chat window of the other person (in other words not the person whose chat tab is currently selected) BEHIND it.  I've no idea when this started as I can't recall when I last dragged a tabbed window.

Anyone else, or advice, etc?

Edit: Does this thread go here, or the Help and Support section?

It seems to be a by-product of setting Vista compatibility, as it doesn't do it when I turn that off.  Ah well, it's not that much of an annoyance and I'd rather do that and have the icon in the taskbar than not.

It's been stated many times on these forums that compatibility mode can have VERY undesirable effects.It is recommended to disable it (Plus! even puts everything back to normal when it is installed for this reason)

If you want the tray icon, you could try the MessengerToTray script.
