stop alerts flashing
I have a privacy problem with alerts. In a busy office, while having a text conversation in windows live messenger, I don't want others to see my message alerts icon flashing on my task bar - especially in a bright colour.

I have tried un-checking all the alerts using Tools, Options in the conversation window, but the alerts icon still flashes.

Can anyone help me to fix this problem?

Try Messenger Live Plus! there is an option to disable it in there. However, it does not currently work with the beta version, so you'll need to be on the latest stable release to use it.
