O.P. Roll Eyes  Format Codes
In conversation windows the names of me and my contacts do not appear in the chosen colour but with their format codes but in my contact list names appear with the chosen colour. Why? Please help! :(

RE: Format Codes
From your screenshot it looks like you have Threatfire installed. This software prevents Messenger Plus! from working properly and removing it is currently the only known fix.

After uninstalling ThreatFire, you should be sure to install another anti-virus program.  Several free programs including AVG and Avast, will keep your computer protected.

Shocked  RE: Format Codes
I've just got the latest WLM installed today and encountered the same "format codes" problem. However, I don't have Threatfire installed on my computer. I just have Norton Security. So any idea how I can solve the problem?

RE: Format Codes
Thanks, djdannyp! It's the MSNShell which caused the conflict. I got it removed and the format-code problem has gone.
