Did you delete this folder too?

C:\Documents and Settings\<windows accountname>\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger\<ID number >\UserTile

As this is the folder wich stores your display pictures, they are named TFR<number>.tmp or TFR<number>.dat  but actually they are just PNG's with the extension renamed.

I attached a lil program that will help you determine wich IDnumber is yours.

.exe File Attachment: msg6_id.exe (68 KB)
This file has been downloaded 138 time(s).

msn 6.2, and when i disabled stuffplug-ng i could add pictures. ill try reinstalling stuffplug-ng

EDIT: its definitely stuffplug related... when it tries to use a stuffplug command my msn crashes. im using the plus! beta ill try downgrading that

EDIT2: downgraded to the plus! 3.25.106 and it still doesnt work... is it worth trying the development version of stuff plug :^)
