I think Windows Live Messenger has some downgrade in this. I remembere
when I am using Windows Live Messenger 2008 (I just switched to WLM 200
yesterday), I can type almost all unicodes as well as some Chinese o
Thai characters. Now, when I type most of it, it appears like a block
This is an example when I type my name

Not great eh? Now, what can I do to make it supports most of unicodes
Please help me, thank you

Greetings,

Out of curiosity, what input mechanism are you using to type the unicode characters? Are you
switching keyboard layouts, typing in the hex codes manually or just copy/pasting?

Although hardly proving much, I took the text of Google.co.th and pasted it in a message
without any problem here. Does that at least work for you? For reference for your own
testing, I'm using the Trebuchet MS font and Vista.
