O.P. Undecided  Tabbed chat bug (minor but annoying)
Hi

I am using MSN Messenger 7.5.0299 with Plus 3.61.145. Windows XP.

I noticed that if you have tabbed chats turned on and talking to more than one person, there is a bug whereby you might not notice a new message.

For example if person A's tab is the active tab, and person B sends a message, you can see their tab flashing. However, the MSN chat program on the taskbar doesn't flash. Therefore, if another window is covering the chat window, there is no (visual) way to know if person B's sent a message. (I don't know about audio as I don't have the sound on).

This has caught me out a few times! It is possible to make the taskbar program flash when anyone sends a new message, not just the person with the active tab.

Hope that makes sense?
