Tray icon stays after exiting msn

After I exit msn the icon stays in the system tray until I mouse ove
it. Kind of like when an app is forced to exit. Not a major problem bu
I'd like to know if there's a fix for it

Thank

Greetings,

In some cases, Messenger might actually be crashing when it's exciting , or a third-party
Messenger tool you have running might be closing Messenger oddly. In most cases it's pretty
safe to ignore.

In a standard environment though, the icon is removed as expected, it's not an actual known
bug or anything.

Ok, you're right about another app causing it. Logitech Deskto
messenger! If I exit the Logitech app first, msn exits correctly

Thanks for your help. :-

Jonathan,

It is a known bug...I dont know why you say its not considering its
been listed multiple times on the Microsoft Connect site, I myself have
the same issue where messenger stays in the tray after exiting and
occurs in each any only 9.0 and 9.1 Beta Messengers offered to Microsoft
Butterfly`s..-.-It was reported some months ago but has yet to be
resolved since they are busy releasing Wave 3

It only affects the Beta messengers and also patched messengers.

Steven

I'm just using the one that installs from the WLinstaller which
downloaded from the ninemsn site. I doubt the version I'm using would b
beta

Well it's non-repro. But "by the book" anyway, this shouldn't be discussed here, so best if
this thread ends now.

Hi,

Well, just out of curiosity, which version of Messenger are you using anyway?
