widescreen and dock by saralk on 06-15-2005 at 07:49 PM
If I have docking enabled, and I dock my contact list to the side, then when I restart my PC and open up the contact list, it always gets moved a bit to the left.
Windows Version: Windows XP, 5.01.2600
Messenger Client Version: 7.0.0813
Messenger Plus! Version: 3.54.0132

Doesn't happen to me, what is your resolution? Mine is 1200x800 on my laptop.

I used to see my Messenger window being moved over, and I'm running a plain 4:3 monitor (1024x768). It happened for a while, then stopped.
I think, if you do a clean shutdown of MSN, it remembers it was over in the docked position. It'll then recover that position on next running.
Edit: Can people at least see if my suggestion works? And by clean shutdown I mean right-click icon > Exit.

i am bumping this, it is quite an annoying bug 
RE: widescreen and dock by Fr3d on 06-29-2005 at 09:18 PM
try docking it on the opposite side...
what other apps startup when you turn on your computer?
as a last resort, try uninstalling messenger plus!, msn messenger, and maybe even windows messenger... backup and remove the reg. entries too... then reinstall and see if this helps

Finally found and fixed, thank you for insisting 
.
Just so you know, the normal behaviour when you restart your computer and Messenger is docked is that the window should appear undocked to its original position after the restart.
