Exactly what i was going to say, all these ideas of "hiding the window to keep the connection going" will not work as the MSN Messenger servers will automatically close your connection even if you leave your contact's window open after a predetermined time of inactivity.
This is in place to save more precious bandwidth and unneccessary load on the MSN Messenger servers. Because of this automated closing of the connection by the servers StuffPlugNG will occasionally report to the user that you have "closed the window" even though you actually haven't - rather the MSN Messenger servers have closed your connection due to inactivity.
