Sorry about the double post matty, and I'm sure its not windows messenger doing it - i'm not a newbie to make that kind of mistake even though my post count is low
As for whether its the plugin or not, this is the second time this has been happening to me - the first was when I first tried this plugin; so I think there may be a connection.
Further strange behaviour is that I now appear to be offline to my contacts, when I'm not appearing offline, nor blockingthem, and, what's strangest, I can stilltalk to them. this is also the second ime this has happened...
I seriously need help with this!
