I've noticed, that if i try to sign out, and one of my contacts send me a
message when i click on Sign Out, It brings the box saying "You have failed
to start a conversation with $2". I click OK and it does not sign me out, it
just spins constantly saying "Signing Out..." And sticks to that.
If i exit WLM again, then load it, it loads as them still spinning and
trying to sign out.
To fix that, i must open Task Manager when WLM is open, and end task.

Anyone else got this? and is there a fix?

Also on a little note: its always said that I have failed to start the
conversation on all versions of MSN... But i didnt, my contact did lol.

Greetings,

The first part of what you're describing is a known problem (if we can call it a known
problem) with the sign out process. However, normally the variable ($2) should have the
person's display name listed.

Does this happen a lot? What happens if you set yourself to appear offline and then sign out
(aka stop people from talking to you).

YEah, it does say the contacts name, i used $2 to show contact name, less to
write
As for the signout continually, well, signing out thats fine if i appear
offline and then sign out.
