Computer shut down and? away message still up....
One of my contacts informs me that she is now shutting her computer down at
night, however, I've noticed that her "away message", i.e., fixing dinner - whatever -is still showing up on my computer. How is this possible? My guess is she's not really shutting her system down. Any comments? Thanks! |

Greetings Tanya,
This is normal, both a contacts' personal message and display name is retained when they go offline. So if they show as offline, they're offline. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger/MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2007 Jonathan Kay.
