I can;t give u exact details because my msn keeps signing me out with the problem thats init.  It'll be within the language section of msn messenger itself - if you can't find it re-install it and check the default language

There is no such thing.
Please don't post in threads if you don't know what you're talking about.

Make sure your input language in Windows is set to left-to-right. Or, do you have CTL languages enabled in Windows (Live Arabic, Thai, Hebrew)? In that case you might wanna try to following shortcut key in the editbox/textbox area in a conversation window:

<CTRL>+<LEFT SHIFT> to switch to Left-To-Right
<CTRL>+<RIGHT SHIFT> to switch to Right-To-Left

It is possible that this wont work at first though. In that case, enter a unicode character first (eg: <ALT>+2222). After that, press the above shortcuts and your text direction will change.

Also, some fonts might trigger the right-to-left direction immediatly, so make sure you don't use any font like that in a conversation.
