O.P. Memory/CPU Usage issues (Specific Cause)
The Basics:
Windows Live Messenger 8.5
Plus version 4.60
XP Pro SP2
A few nights ago I double clicked on a contact and WLM hung. Within about 10 seconds my laptop had stopped responding to commands. As such I unplugged it and removed the battery and re booted. It did the same thing a couple of other times until I gave up. Since then I've had a couple of other crashes. Again related to one contact. And tonight it's doing it again.
As far as I can tell it;s random. However so far it has only done it on two contacts. Both with the extension installed on there machines. I was fortunate enough today however to have task manager open when WLM hung. The CPU usage and memory usage both went up through the roof.
I have tried completely removing the extension and WLM and installing both from scratch. So that rules out a bad WLM build. The only changes are some windows updates and a new theme.
So any ideas? 'Cause I'm stumped.
