O.P. Automatic display name change & status change (WLM)
Hi all...Is anyone out there having a problem with your display name and online status in WLM automatically changing when you login to hotmail?

Last night I started to notice that when I log into hotmail (I guess Windows Live) through IE or Firefox, my display name in Windows Live Messenger automatically changes to my first name (the one that is used when I send an email through hotmail).  It also automatically changes my online status to Available (it was appear offline, away, busy, etc).  It’s definitely not just a problem with my computer or Windows XP…It also happens on my laptop which runs Vista.  Is there any way to stop this from happening?

I’ve already disabled the things in Windows Live Messenger like:
-    Automatically run Windows Live Messenger when I log onto Windows
-    Allow automatic sign in when connected to the internet

Any help is much appreciated

Many thanks
