and once again...Any reason why this should be doing this? or should i just reinstall msn messenger? The stupid thing wont give me a direct link...and ill do a test and edit.


edit: yeah, it did it again. and btw...the little line there is wahts supose to open it in this image, which is weird because OPEN is usually the direct link....and the whole C:/ thing

Do you have your Messenger patched or skinned?

hm, i think i have the -disable emoticon finishes- one, from before stuffplug ng. but i dont think i can find it...

Edit: ah! i know why it does this!  my documents suddenly opens everything in paintshop pro and photoshop instead of the fax viewer thign!

that happened to me before but only when im receiving png files

Eeek, yeah, this has happened to me and a few of my friends...
I tried working on a way to stop it and the closest I got was a way to stop it happening for a short period of time...It has nothing to do with patching MSN. In fact I had a theory it could be a conflict with Plus! because it went away for a while when I uninstalled it in a test to get rid of this problem...I found a system rollback on Windows XP stopped this problem temporarily, I uninstalled both Msg Plus! and MSN Messenger and then a reinstall. But that's the closest anyone I believe has got to solving it.

thats not the problem i had, im sure it was because it wouldnt open itself in photoshop or paintshop pro.
