Strange delay when beginning a convo with a specific contact.

If they are too long, it takes time, which is why they have some limit. The Plus! logs won't have this kind of problem - it just appends the new text to the end of the log.

You can turn off the logging by Messenger in > Tools > Options > Messages > Uncheck "Automatically keep a history of my conversations"

Try moving or renaming the log file for that contact, and see how it goes.

Edit: Cookie's posts I mentioned are in Max Size Of Chat Log?!

Great!

Removing the XML logs seems to have done the trick.

Thanks a lot.
