Edit: By the way, the quotation below is the evidence of my statements. He deleted the cache and contact's name turned to an older one, is this correct rem17?

Try deleting your contact cache:
C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live Contacts
I have done this and asked a few friends to sign out, then I sign in again to check, but it's still not working.
No, I created this thread to get help on this. I have never deleted the cache up until RebelSean told me.

When you login, if your contact has updates to his/her display name and/or personal message, it is downloaded from the servers. Same goes with your contacts display picture.
Yes, this happens only for your online contacts. For your offline contacts, you won't see any change until they come online. (I think rem17's problem is this, she saw the old names only for her offline contacts in her list, I don't think she has any problem with her online contacts)
I have been using WLM for months now, maybe nearly a year and I've never had problems with the contacts names, but about a week ago I signed in and noticed some names were off months ago or just had their e-mail address. When a contact is online their name is updated, but when I sign out and in again and they're offline it's back to their old name/e-mail address. Before that though, WLM did store the current contact names even when they were offline!
Anyway I've lost my DPs so I'm just going to reinstall WLM, hopefully it will work again!
Oh and I'm a she.
