Microsoft Messenger Problem.... Arg

Hey everybody,

I sometimes have a habit of typing something into an IM window and then begin typing something else again to the same person. This morning though, I opened up my messenger and began typing a message to a friend, but all of a sudden something started to happen. If I type a message, hit enter to send it, I cannot begin typing right away again... I have to physically click into the message box to get it to allow me to type.

This has NEVER happened to me before and I can't for the life of me figure out why this is happening. The only things I've installed lately are the Safari 4 Beta and I updated Adobe Air. Both of those things don't have anything in common with Messenger so I don't think they'd affect it in any way.

Does anybody else have this problem and know how to fix it? It's making having a conversation really painful...

 

Alright thanks. I usually do searches on small problems I have and never come up with anything and I thought this would have been one of those problems so I didn't bother searching.

Thanks though.
