O.P. Cannot add contact to desktop
Hi everybody

Contacts on desktop. For a long time I used this great feature, but something went wrong. Suddenly one of the 12 boxes' color was screwed. It went totally black. It did this before, the best solution was to remove it from the desktop and then add it again. I tried the same, removed from the desktop, but I cannot add it again. When I try local menu->Msgplus features->Display on desktop, I found it inactive (gray)! But only for this one contact.

Things that I have tried (in chronological order):
- Blocked contact and then unblocked
- Reinstalled MsgPlus (4.70.334)
- Reinstalled Messenger Live (updated to 2009 beta)
- Reinstalled MsgPlus (updated to 479)
- Deleted contact and then re-added

I have Live Messenger 2009 beta with MsgPlus 479 and Discovery 1.5

This problem started on the latest downloadable stable version of Live Messenger, with MsgPlus, also the latest ver, with Discovery 1.5. Nothing new (plugin, uptades) were installed when it first occured.
As you can see above, I updated the complete "collection", but the problem still occurs.

Any idea?
Thanks in advance

MsgDiscovery isnt even compatible with windows live messenger 2009. Uninstall it and see if the problem is solved.

Messenger Discovery is another third party add-on for Messenger, but it is incompatible with Messenger 2009 and can cause problems with some of Messenger Plus! Live's features

So uninstall Messenger Discovery if you are running Windows Live Messenger 2009
