O.P. Problem with smilies
Please could you assist me?

Yesterday I received an update for messenger plus which I accepted and downloaded.

Now all of my default smilies are completely messed up, infact in most cases, 2 emotes are in the same selection box. Could you please tell me how to fix this problem?

Hi wild child,

what exactly did you install? I wonder why you got the update only yesterday, or haven't you been using Live Messenger before? The last update to Messenger Plus! was released about two weeks ago.

I just got the update 5 minutes ago (Yuna's Messenger Plus 5), and I'm having the same problem.

PS: I use Messenger every day, so I don't know why I didn't get it two weeks ago.

I would attempt a clean re-install.

Any details on other Windows Live Messenger add-ons that are installed might help pinpoint the cause of this issue.

As there seem to be fairly little reports on this, a simple re-install or reboot may fix the issue.

Is this thread perhaps related to error in messenger icon (all skins) ?

Automatic updates are never enabled the moment a new version is out, for several reasons. Usually it is only enabled at least a week after the actual release, and even then it can take some more time. This said, there were also some problems with the auto-update indication at first, delaying the auto-update a bit more. And currently it still doesn't always trigger a new update either.

I have the same problem. I'm using WLM 2009 and Messenger Plus! version 5.01.0.706 with fuse 1.0.4 skin. I've never encountered this problem before until yesterdays automatic update.

Does switching to the default skin help?

Yeah, actually it did. So apparently fuse 1.0.4 doesn't work well with the newest version of Messenger Plus! for some reason. I guess I'll have to start using a different skin or install older version of Messenger Plus!, unless there's some other solution?

It isn't Plus! that's the issue, it's WLM. I take it you're using WLM 2011 with the latest public build of Plus!

Because Mircosoft changed so many things around in WLM 2011, some Plus! skins won't work properly. It's up to the designers/creators to update their skins.

If I'm wrong, please don't flame me! I'm a newb to skins, I deal with scripts :D
