Hello Jeremy, I downloaded the latest version of MSN messenger and it doesn't do that to me (thank God). I wish I could be of more help.

Hello, I was wondering if any of you use Windows Live messenger 8, and might know how to stop it from continually saying the persons name who has sent you a messege, without having to actually go to that particular window itself to stop it? I have the window maximised and I also checked the verbosity settings to see if there might be something that could be changed but, I myself, didn't see anything that would apply. I am using Jaws 8 and I didn't have these troubles with 7. I do certainly thank any of you who might be able to help me with this irritating ordeal. Jeremy
