Hi,
I miss the custom colour I can set too.
What exactly is happening when you try to install the older version?
By the contacts, do you mean you wish to clear them entirely on the server or just the stored
contact cache for some reason? If the latter, the "Windows Live Contacts" folder can be
deleted by doing the following:
Shut Messenger down and then head over the following folder;
On XP you can find this folder at:
\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft
On Vista, you'll find it at:
\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft
Where username is your Windows username. Additionally, some of these folders will be hidden
by default, to see them simply press the
Alt key on the keyboard in any Windows Explorer window to bring up the toolbar, click Tools,
then Folder Options, then the View tab, and then choose 'Show hidden files and folders'.
After click OK, they should appear with the other folders.
