Tip: Could be GDI+ problem (I'm quite sure). I've seen other applications as the same as well..

It's not a GDI+ problem at all, it's because Plus! has it's own window that it uses for the tabbed chat feature (MessengerPlusLive_TabbedChats). This window doesn't have a DWM thumbnail so it doesn't appear in 3D Flip or on taskbar thumbnails. Not sure why, I'm sure someone else can explain better ![:P](images/smilies/msn_tongue.gif)

Yes, that's probably right. But still, DWM thumbnails has problems with some programs which use a lot GDI+.

I didn't know why that happened but infact that makes perfect sense to me ![:)](images/smilies/msn_happy.gif)
I always thought that those windows were dybamically created from scratch (omg resource whore) but thats not totally true ![:)](images/smilies/msn_happy.gif) I realised that when i saw my first app not having a DWM thumbunail.
Do .NET applications have it by default because in a .NET 2.0 application I was making, I could see the thumbunail by default (no code was required) ![:)](images/smilies/msn_happy.gif)
