Because you were appearing offline.

the contact didn't show ,but the contact information that belongs to MsgPlus showed a picture that belongs to me in her section(but ti wasn't my main picture)

I was going to address this before, but wanted more time to think about it. My best guess is that this is a display picture you stole from her before, or you randomly ended up with the same one. Either way, that picture is still in Messenger's cache, which is why it still appears.

no way it was actually a picture of me(snap shot ) how would I steal it from her ,her picture didn't appear in the contact information but in the contact information that belongs to MsgPlus only .

anyone have a clue how that happened

If the contact doesn't have a display picture, plus seams to randomly choose one from messengers cache of display pictures. And you're old DP would probably be in that cache, therefore it would have used that one.

So yes, a bit of a bug

No, only you should see that picture, and the display picture should change back when she goes online.

well ,the contact information that belongs to MsgPlus of my friend had a picture that belonged to me (snap shot of me ) but not the one I was currently using ,while the contact information of msn didn't have a picture ,just curious how it happened
