If you have the tabs hidden in MSN Messenger there is an easy way of still accessing them without having to go through the trouble of having to show the Tabs and sign out and sign back in. If the Windows has the Focus use CTRL + TAB and it will change the Tab that is displayed.

I honestly think Microsoft needs to change this because Tabs are supposed to be hidden and not accessible but thats not true.

Matty, thanks for that little tidbit of information. I never knew that M$ made so many security holes in an IM client.......

*Chaos_Grenade sighs*

I don't think that you have to worry about this, most people probably don't know this.

not so for me....... maybe ur doing it wrong

I can't do that. MSN Messenger 6.2.0133 here.

Don't think its really a security hole , it is not allowing others to veiw your info or anything , just a minor bug.

It works for me , I have Messenger 6.1 , Too lazy to update.
