Greetings,

It sounds like compatibility mode may have been engaged on Messenger. To check for this,
click Start, then Run, type "%programfiles%\msn messenger" and click OK.

Right-click "msnmsgr" and click Properties. Then click the Compatibility tab and see if any
options under Display settings have been set. If they have, uncheck them and click OK.
