O.P. Sad  Messenger Lockup
When I sign onto messenger and try to talk to one of my friends, she keeps complaining that her computer locks up and she has to restart when I talk to her for more than maybe 10 seconds. She says that I am the only person that makes her computer crash and she is the only one that complains about her computer crashing because of me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Whats the difference between a normal picture and a dynamic one? Even if she uses one, I dont see what that has to do with her computer locking up by sending messages.

A dynamic display picture is about double the size of a normal display picture, and is animated. (Full explanation: Click here)

So if you did have a dynamic display picture, her computer might slow down because it takes longer to load because it is animated, which could cause MSN Messenger to crash, if she has a slow computer.

Ok, I get it. She doesnt use DDP but I recently found something new... I can still type to her, but not anymore than maybe 1 or 2 words at a time. If I were to type more than that, her computer crashes and she has to restart. I rarely use emoticons and she doesnt either.
