O.P. Messenger Lock sometimes doesn't restore original status after unlocking
Since I started to work in an office, I have been using the messenger lock function a lot. I configured it as such.

  1. Locking and Unlocking is done with shortcuts.
  2. I send messages upon locking and unlocking to open chats.
  3. Systray icon is changed while locking.
  4. My status is changed to a preset personalized status.
    • Personalized status has the name tag Kilitli which means Locked
    • The status is changed to Busy
    • There are some auto-responder messages
  5. Unlocking requires a password.
  6. Systray icon tooltip and menu are disabled.

However sometimes when I unlock it, my personalized status doesn't revert back to the one before locking. My name tag remains there and my status remains as Busy. When I open Personaized Status window, it looks like no personalized status has been set yet. One interesting thing is the icon in systray after unlocking reflects the Available status icon although my status is shown as Busy in contact list and conversation windows. I don't know a way to reproduce this but I encounter this problem frequently. I have to change my status to the original one manually after unlocking. Also the Event Viewer doesn't record a name or status change after unlocking when this problem occurs.
