This is helpful information if you noticed a recent
change in your MSN Messanger contacts--as in the offline
contacts appearing green (like online green). This
problem probably showed up after just recently updating
your NVIDIA Drivers.... I found this tip online at the
site listed below.

...If anyone else has this problem you'll probably find
it started after updating your nvidia video drivers to
the latest version. I rolled back to the previous drivers
and problem corrected itself. I had tried everything
before this, including uninstalling msn messenger and
messenger plus completely, then reinstalling, but only by
rolling back to previous nvidia drivers did I solve it.
Hope anyone else with this problem can find this... it
was so annoying not being able to identify the problem.
Cheers
