Color nick and inactive status not shown in contact list by gorro on 03-24-2009 at 02:47 PM

Hello everyone, I have WLM 2009 14.0.8064.206 ITA and msgplus 4.81.0.358.
Colored nick are not shown in contact list, as well as idle status. For the idle status I have to open a conversation window to see it, otherwise in contact list it's just Non al computer (Away)
Why?

For the idle problem, See Patchou's reply to Not changing status to Idle. For the coloured nicknames problem, go to Plus!> Preferences & Options> Customize> Tick "Use formatting attributes to color contact names in Messenger windows"> Apply> OK.
Note: You need to restart Messenger for that to work.

Do they appear as codes or they dont appear at all? Also, do you have any other add-ons?

Do you have any other add-ons that may be conflicting with Plus! like MessengerDiscovery, GDI++, Kiwee, SmileyCentral, SweetIM or ThreatFire installed?

Look in your Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel and search through the list of programs

Note: if you are on Windows Vista it will be called Programs and Features

Haha, unfortunately for MP!L to work properly, you would have to uninstall Threatfire.

ThreatFire is an anti-virus program.

So to answer your question, nothing bad will happen if you don't get any virus :P

If you want MP!L and also an anti-virus program, you can switch to other anti-virus programs (i.e. kaspersky, norton, etc....)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't see how they are related.
RE: Color nick and inactive status not shown in contact list by HennyHenHen!! on 03-25-2009 at 08:16 PM

If i remove ThreatFirwe, will it only be on my ac or the whole pc?

They are not related, just the two products belong to one software company. Removing ThreatFire wouldnt affect Firewall Plus.

It would apply to your PC.

Uninstall ThreatFire and install AVG your computer will be perfectly safe and your Messenger Plus! Live will work fine
