Unable to send mobile text (SMS)

I just upgraded (forced) to WLM 2009. From what I've seen it's not bad
but I do miss using version 8.5. Anyway, when I select a contact under
Mobile, the contact box opens up but when I move the cursor to the
dialog box to start typing, it won't let me type anything. If I go to
my laptop which is using WinXP and WLM 8.5, everything works. I
checked and all my contacts have their cell numbers. Any suggestions??

I take it no one else is seeing this problem? I just installed W7 and WLM
2009 on my laptop and it works fine. I would hate to do another clean install
just to get Messenger to work right. I just spent two days doing a clean
install.
