Windows Live Font problems
okay, so this started happening like 3 weeks ago, and i put up with it, and now its starting to get annoying. at first everyone's font was their own, then all of a sudden, they became the font i was using, and i was like, ok, cool, and then the next day their original colours became black, which was the color i was using, and it has continued then. It is very annoying now, as when i ask them to change their font to one that does not look like mine they say wtf r u saying. so i want to fix this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated please, and thank you.

The only thing I can think of is a third party program that was installed to default your contacts fonts. They are used for those who do not like to read hot pink or lime green font colors, with fonts that are next to impossible to read.

Do you have any third party programs for WLM? Any plugins?

So then you do have Messenger Plus Live then? If so, look at the following setting:

I'm sorry? What do you mean, "go to downloads"? If you wish to help (which is very encouraged) you are going to have to elaberate a lot more on your posts. I am an Advisor for MSN (Windows Live) Messenger, and even I do not understand what you mean. You're going to have to explain a lot better.

Knightshayde, with Windows Live Messenger open, click on the "Plus" menu, then scroll to preferences. Hit the conversations tab at the top (like it is in the picture).

I believe that D0ubl3_H3lix is pointing to our Downloads section where Messenger Plus is already available for everyone to download

okay, thanks for the help, it worked when i updated Live Messenger to MSN Live Plus.

But now i have another problem, and this is really pissing me off. like literally.

what happens is that a little error tabby thing appears, and it says 'MSN has encountered an error' blah blah blah, and it's okay if you ignore it. Well...that's what happened before. Now if you ignore it, MSN closes by itself in a minute, and EVEN if you do press dont send or send, it closes msn anyway. Either way, it closes.

Can anyone help me with this problem please?
Included is a screen of the error



Thanks once again, Knightshayde
