Hi all,

I have encountered a memory leak when using Messenger Plus! Live 4.0.0.235 ("MP") with Windows Live Messenger 8.0.0787.00 ("M"). M currently seems to be stuck in a memory leak, it is using 100% CPU time and steadily consuming all of my memory (>200MB memory usage and >200MB virtual memory usage). I have encountered this problem on two seperate systems but am unable to nail down the cause.

This is on:

• Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]\
  
• Intel Pentium 4 2.8Ghz Processor with Hyperthreading Technology
  
• 1.00GB of memory used

I have also experienced this error on another computer the specifications of which I am unsure. M will usually use approximately 90MB of memory total (ie. physical and virtual) with a couple chats open. I believe it has to do with the tabbed chats function of MP more specifically, tabbed chats when group conversations are used. I am unable to confirm this currently, but I suspect is arises when there are group chats open with tabbed chat and a person joins or leaves the chat (not sure whether the group chat being focused or unfocussed is relevant). I haven't been able to confirm this however, as mentioned previously.

Apologies if this bug report is in the incorrect format. If more information is required I will try to post it.
