O.P. Huh?  compose new email popup??
hey guys, i'm having a really annoying problem atm.

when i double click an online contact on my contact list, the IM window comes up, but a second later, a compose new email window addressed to the person also pops up.

it's exactly like when you double click an offline contact and that window comes up

i've tried uninstalling plus, and then messenger.

can anyone help? thanks in advance.

Did it help? if not, then it isn't a Messenger Plus! problem... that's all I can say....

If it did, then have you plugins installed? If so, which ones? Try to disable them one by one to find the culprint...

ahhh i folllowed the steps for the clean install, and then when i start messenger, this error comes up:

msnmsger.exe - Unable to Locate Component
This application has failed to start because VP.DLL was not found.  Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

the program still runs fine after that, but there's still the email pop-up that occurs.

VP.DLL is from InfoPen. By cleaning out the registry you also broke those links needed for InfoPen...

Also, do you have StuffPlug-NG? There is an issue between InfoPen and StuffPlug (unless TB has fixed it in the new release, I dunno about that). Make sure you have installed the latest StuffPlug version: http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=30009

Now, to fix the errors: uninstall InfoPen completely:
add/remove programs > InfoPen

Then install the handwriting plugin instead if you wish to be able to "handwrite". You can download the complete package here: http://downloads.mess.be/SLim_Shady/downloads/msn...g(www.mess.be).zip

Read the instructions first though:
http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=22276

If all this is done, the problem should be fixed (and the VP.DLL-error should be gone also)...
