You say to never download from unofficial sources but if the product is not available on official sources we don't have other choice than downloading on others sites.
I will try to format my hard drive I hope it will restore my contact list.
your contact list is stored on servers, not locally
try logging into
http://webmessenger.msn.com and seeing if your contact list is downloaded properly
if you're using a leaked copy of WLM 9.0 it is quite possible that it would not download your contact list from the server as you're not supposed to have access to it and therefore your contacts wouldn't be available on that server.
reformatting your hard-drive will definitely not solve any problem of this nature
re-install 8.5, and try that, if your contact list still doesn't appear properly, see via webmessenger (link above).....if it appears then, then you will have to clear your local cache in order to force WLM to re-download your contact list, but it might not come to that
