Thanks for your help.

Why would someone put "[b]" tag in front of an emoticon.
Yes, it may sound stupid but normal texts at the very beginning of a nickname prevents all some formatting on infobar. In other words, if the first formatting tag in a nickname comes after a normal text in the name, then infobar doesn't show some types of formatting on the name in the infobar of convo windows when contacts are offline. For details visit that thread.

That is why I requested from that contact to move that "[b]" tag in front of the emoticon because I thought it will fix the problem. But that made everything worse, though infobar showed his name correct after the change.

Yesterday, that contact came online and he changed his nickname for four times according to my requests. You can see what he did in his Contact Information window in the attachment. For all of them [b] tag is in the front of everything, and all the same formatting on his name still exists like the first case (even if you can't see them in the picture) and for all of them everything was fine. Thanks again for your tests.

Congratulations to Sunshine for figuring out the problem exactly.

Edit: I think it mustn't be only I'M emoticons with more than 4 letters, I think it must be wrong with emoticons which have more than 4 letters, though I thinkk we don't have any other emote with more than 4 letters like I'M ones.
