Greetings,

As a starting point, you might try removing your "Windows Live Contacts" folder (which is
just a cache anyway).

On XP you can find this folder at:
\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live
Contacts

On Vista, you'll find it at:
\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Contacts

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.
