Hello for months now Windows Live Messenger is after around 10 minutes of
use taking up all my CPU and causing it to crash and make all my other
programs lag. Does anybody have a solution for this?! As its really annoying
me now! :'(

Greetings Laff,

Do you have any animation emoticons in your display name? Although this isn't the only
reason, this can cause what you're describing.
