O.P. The tabs won't blink when I get a message!
I just blew out my machine and upgraded to vista. When I went to install Messenger Plus! Live everything went fine but when I put everything in tabs nothing would blink. Normally the tab would blink a darker color and the taskbar button would blink orange, but nothing blinks anymore. I still hear the sound though. Any help?

As said many times before, Tabbed chats have problems in Vista. patchou cant fix this untill he gets a copy of vista.

You will just have to put up with it, or disable tabbed chats for now.

See: Windows Vista :: 3DStacked Windows Bug..

Haha i'm sorry. I searched for tabs blinking, tabs alert, and vista, but never tabs and vista.

This could have helped. Sorry! :P

code:
function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, Message, MessageKind){
    Interop.Call("User32", "FlashWindow", ChatWnd.handle, true);
}
A temporary fix for vista.

Messenger Plus Preferences> Scripts>New script> and insert the code and save it and run it. Its something like that.
