RE: Remove contacts and groups
The groups is understandable..wether to show those or not is set in the registry. You will need to remove the group on the other computer aswell.

Asfor contacts returning that's something different, your contactlist is stored on MSN servers. Try to delete this contact again and if you see it return again contact Microsoft support at http://feedback.live.com

P.S. Msg Plus! does not infere in any of this...both things are MSN features.

The showing (read: rolling out) is indeed stored in the registry and not on the MSN servers, however:

The groups themselfs (and which contacts go where) are stored on the MSN servers and thus isn't machine dependant either.

In case there was a setting in the registry to show a particular group and that group doesn't exist anymore (since you've deleted it via the other machine) the group should not return either as it was deleted from the MSN servers (aka: the registrty setting for rolling out/not rolling out that group is not read and thus ignored).

no they are not

Did you explicitly say you had 7.5 or did you hinted it? Did you used the Windows Live feedback form? Did they literally say "reinstall" or did they say "try to install"? etc etc...

Support services can only help as good as you explain to them the problem. They are not magical fairies that instantly know what you mean or what is wrong.

---

I'm sorry, but lately people seem to dismiss everything just like that and call support services plain stupid just like that. And tbh, most of the time (as in 99,999999999999999%) it is the people themselfs who misread, don't explain well or jump to conclussions, etc etc...

I'm not saying you did, but it seems that a lot of people do...


Anyways, if you eventually could post the exact stuff you send them and the exact reply of them with the solution (which works) it would be nice... ;)
