I use WindowBlinds 4.2 and WinXP Pro+SP2. I recently got a net connection and started using Yahoo messenger. The Y! msgr is v7 with voice. The prob is that whenever I right click on the tray icon or the main messenger window the msgr crashes ie: it vanishes without showing any error messages.It's not the beta version. Same goes fot text colour, emoticons etc. All this happens when windowblinds is on. Whenever I unload it, the msgr works just fine. What could be the prob? If anyone faced the same prob but solved it please respond.
