every once in a while, I come across a problem with not seeing the contacts
that are online when I sign into messenger. especialy if I have like three or
four sign in at the same time. I will see one contact but the rest of them
aren't there. but when I sign out and back in again I can see them. whats the
deal?

Hey Rage,

I'm not entirely sure what you're referring to. Some screenshots might be helpful.

Regardless, when you say they "aren't there" - does that mean they're just still offline or
is the actual window blank or what?

yes, they are just still offline. I had that problem this morning. I had a
contact message me and her status just said away but on my messenger she was
offline to me until I signed out and then back in. this seemed to start a
while back when I had a problem just getting signed in and I got program not
responding. shortly after that I think I had a corruption error somewhere.
anyway, no matter how many times I have started over for different reasons it
still acts like that when I first open it sometimes. it will show as signed
in on the taskbar, but takes a while for the contact list to come up. and
that is where I have the problem a lot of times. the contacts are there and
yet they aren't....
