O.P. Make contacts DP display immediately
Hi, I wonder if you could help me with something - it's not a problem as such but I wondered if there is a way to do it.

Everytime I log onto MSN 7 (I have the public release 7.0.777) about 90% of my contacts display pictures wont appear in my contact list automatically. I have to double click them, wait a bit and then their pic appears, which in turn makes it appear in the contact list as well.

I was wondering whether there is anyway to get the pics to display automatically in my contact list rather than have to double click each person and wait.

Thx v.much :)

Its a delay on the protocol so that your connection is bombarded with a million display pictures being transfered.

Don't you mean "so that your connection isn't bombarded with a million display pictures"?

I understood it anyway - it makes sense really, didn't think of that.
