O.P. Lock messenger and Windows 7
I'm using Ctrl+Space to lock and Ctrl+Shift+Space to unlock. But after unlocking, the icon (pinned in the taskbar) doesn't show the status indicator anymore. I have to change my status in order to make it appear.
Anyone else experienced this?

I'm not sure I understand the problem exactly, can you give more details? (a screenshot maybe?).

There's no status indicator.

Upgrade to 4.82, that version is the only one fully compatible with Windows 7

RE: Lock messenger and Windows 7
as a completely unrelated note, you should really get in the habit of using "lock workstation" instead, especially now that it's been improved on vista/win7 to work in any configuration. it's much more secure. (start > shutdown menu > lock, or windowskey+L)
