I dont think you need to do that though...Its just a bug in the beta version of MSN Messenger 7.0.

It does not require a reinstall of anything actually...

Problem solved. I just turned the one that MSN provides off, and kept the one from Plus. All is fixed, agiain thank-you all

Yes, it's due to Plus! special characters are not allowed in XML file format, which is used in MSN7. I'm not sure whether saving 'high' unicode characters behaves the same, but it's bug on Microsoft side. Is there any way how to get them know about it, or how can I as a user report any issues with beta MSN to Microsoft? (or isn't that the reason of beta versions to be published?)

If you want to send any feedback to them, you can use this:

I've been using this for a while, but I dont know whether this is the correct one for MSN Messenger 7.0 though...

Or, you can click Help>Send Feedback, but I dont think it works now...
