O.P. why's there a hyphen in the personal message box ?
sorry if this has been asked..
occasionally, random contacts on my list have a hyphen next to their name ( - )  as their personal message (the greyed text) with no message that follows the hyphen.  On my list, a contact would look like this:

gallows44 -

If you scroll over their name on your list to highlight, you'd see for example

gallows44 - -    (so the first hyphen is just the usual one that separates contact name from the personal message they have, so the 2nd hyphen is the message, right?)

Don't think it's a "what I'm listening to" glitch since some of these contacts never display their music.  The hyphen just appears every so often next to certain people on my list.  If I sign out and sign in again, their hyphen still remains ( until they refresh.. log out then log in again.)
anyone else experience or notices this?  is my live messenger just fucked?
Know what it means?
Thanks to anyone that responds
