my cpu details:
2800 mega hertz   pentium 4
1 giga ram
msn 7.5   
msgplus 3.62
ati readeon................
well.........what you need to know? ready to answer!
thanx for help!

Now since you are using Messenger Plus! do you have any plugins installed?

To check this open the main contact list then click on Plus! > Preferences > Plugins > Uncheck Allow Messenger Plus! to load plugins in my account. Then click Ok.

What you want to do next is sign off MSN Messenger and sign back in and check to see if the same issue happens. If it does try uninstalling Messenger Plus! to make sure it is not causing a memory leak.

If after all this it still does not work then I would be looking at other programs that might be causing it like Smiley Central for example.

Another thing is you have 61 processes. I would reboot the computer into Safe Mode with Networking and visit this website and clear our your system startup (Start > run > msconfig). Then reboot the computer.

Have you used any games patches, skins, or any kind of patch on MSN Messenger? Have you tried uninstalling MSN Messenger and reinstalling it? (Start > Control Panel > Add\Remove Programs > Messenger Plus > Click button > Follow uninstall)

Yes, MSN's memory usage is ridiculous sometimes. It gets even worse in the next version (WLM). I suggest we all contact Microsoft about it and let them know they should do something about the extreme memory usage. Let the Messenger team know what you think at MSN Feedback.

bad news......reinstall is not helping!   
msn support didnot help so much! we been e-mailing more than 15 emails......they send me whats writen in the messenger.msn.com!
getting bored from msn!   the problem is all the ppl i talk are from msn....canot change it now!
icq with me is ok!

MsgPlus! is actually an add-on, not a patch. A patch would be like A-Patch... or Mess Patch... I wouldn't reccommend putting them onto your messenger though since you have that much memory usage already.

Without being signed in, what is the memory usage like?

well.....i found now that the msgplus isnot the problem.....
but if some one can give me some hints....i will appreciate that...i emailed msn support....they dont solve it yet!!
so........when iam not signed in its about 4 mega....and when the main window or the message window are minimized...its about 10 megas.....wierd to me...i can be 100 mega with opened windows..and for one second..it goes to 5-6 mega!!!
now iam trying to find what msn 7.5 use ....but i dont know where to look.........
any help will good to me!
thanx
