O.P. URL-encoded characters appear in nicknames.

Hello,

Logged onto Messenger yestarday and found people have %20%20%20%20%20 in their Messenger name's .. I asked a few friend's if they have the problem and 2 of them who are running on XP said, yes they also have the %20%20%20%20%20 in a few of their contact's names .. so this cannot be a OS related problem. So I un-installed Messenger and Plus! .. then installed Messenger and Plus! again, rebooted and the problem still occurs.

My (!VER) details

Windows Vista Home Premium (6.0.6000)
Windows Live Messenger 8.5.1018
Messenger Plus! Live 4.50.0.312

I have 2 screenshot's below, I have asked permission of a few contact's to keep their name's in, and I have totally wiped out some people's name's for their privacy, so, colours on some contacts work, some I just get the %20%20%20%20%20NAME thing.
