Anyway I did some digging and found out the way to solve this is runen-USCommunityServer 2.1 SP1 (Build: 61025.2)http://blogs.technet.com/nking/archive/2009/05/16/window-7-beta-and-windows-live-messenger.aspx#3243737Wed, 20 May 2009 15:22:52 GMTd5e57398-b9ef-4490-9955-07cbb4e4a80d:3243737Tim Long<p>The new behaviour does take a bit of getting used to, but actually I find it kind of useful. I've pinned WLM to my task bar so it's there all the time. The reason being, I can close the WLM main window when not using it, but I still have access to features on the Jump List (by right-clicking the taskbar icon) to directly change or view my status or send a message. This replaces the little &quot;blue pawn&quot; icon that used to appear in the notification area.</p> <p>I really like what Microsoft has done with the task bar in Windows 7. It is a great improvement. The only thing I miss is the little blinking network status icon.</p>http://blogs.technet.com/nking/archive/2009/05/16/window-7-beta-and-windows-live-messenger.aspx#3243778Wed, 20 May 2009 17:42:17 GMTd5e57398-b9ef-4490-9955-07cbb4e4a80d:3243778Sean Daniel<P>Tisk tisk, not following my blog Nick?</P> <P><A href="http://sbs.seandaniel.com/2009/05/how-to-get-live-messenger-back-in.html" rel=nofollow target=_new>http://sbs.seandaniel.com/2009/05/how-to-get-live-messenger-back-in.html</A> </P>
