Greetings Michael,
Also check in Messenger's Tools, Options, General category that you have 'Open Messenger main window when Messenger starts' is selected and then try again. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2005 Jonathan Kay.

Hi, i'm afraid that hasn't worked. When i installed the plugin (can't
remember where from though) the feature worked even when i used itunes, now it works with neither that or media player. Any other suggestions? Thanos very much for the quick response.

Yes, it stopped working for me as well. I dont even think it was between
upgrades. It just stopped working. Ive noticed just reciently and I dont know when exactly. I tried upgrading to 7.5, and it still does not work. Looking at the above posts, all the check boxes were checked on mine. Anybody have any ideas? Jason "Michael J" wrote: I'm afraid the problem has returned again.

Ok, I just realized why mine didnt show. I had updated WMP and it stopped.
You have to recheck it in the plugin options on WMP, then it worked. jason "Jason" wrote: Yes, it stopped working for me as well. I dont even think it was between upgrades. It just stopped working.

Hi Jason,
Yes, that happens infrequently; I actually think it's a Windows Media Player issue. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2005 Jonathan Kay.
