RE: Conversation Backgrounds
I have this same problem. I consecutively uploaded about 15 pictures (they were a bit large) to my Backgrounds. Then, when I tried opening any one of them, all of MSN freezes and I have to open Task Manager and "end now" everything.

I've tried uninstalling MSN and reinstalling again, no luck.

I've tried going to:

C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger\<msn id>\Backgrounds

But once I get to Microsoft, there isn't even a MSN Messenger file.

I can upload a background right now and it will work. But when I try clicking on anyone of the 15 backgrounds I consecutively opened, it freezes. I can't even remove them because it freezes, I guess when trying to show the preview picture.

Please help!!!!!!!

----------------------
EDIT... ITS FIXED!

My sister was on our other computer which shares the same files. So she shared the same backgrounds that were frozen with me. Then, they started to work! I could click on the ones that she shared that used to freeze! Same picture from the same file. So we continued to share all of them so I could at least click on them and delete them. When we were nearly done, I checked my Backgrounds list and they were all gone. Back to normal. Weird. But now I can upload pictures and I'll be careful to only upload a few at a time and a maximum of 9 or 10.

Edit

Minor setback... I logged out of MSN and signed back in later and my backgrounds again were all gone. Have to upload them again. Weird.
