I have tried that thanks, and removed every trace of beta 7, but still the
same problem. I don't think it's a signature issue. MSN Msgr and Windows
Msgr don't interact that much anyway AFAIK.
It is obvious to me that as the error log reports an unauthorized 'window',
this is a problem with the Windows Messenger window, not MSN 7 signature.
As it is only when I start typing a new conversation, or someone signs in,
and as that is *exactly* when a Windows Messenger 'window' would pop up in
the remote session, for some reason MCX is kicking me off for that Windows
Messenger window popping up!
"Unauthorized window was detect while running the Media Center Experience,
'Suzy - Conversation', with file name 'C:\Program
Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe'."
That does not look like a signature issue with MSN 7 as it doesn't even
mention msnmsgr.exe.
Could you please probe a little further into what instances a Windows
Messenger conversation window itself would become 'unauthorized'? I need to
get it authorized!
I have tried both 4.7 and 5.1. Many many thanks Todd.
