Windows Live Messenger Emoticon Bug

Windows Live Messenger

Windows Live Messenger emoticon bugI’ve recently been exploring a bug in how WLM handles emoticons. So far to replicate the problem you have to flood your contact with the same emoticon.

Click the image to the right for full sized example.

After you’ve done this, if you hold down shift+enter (newline) for a long time you will randomly get new emoticons in the text input area. This has been replicated with version 8.0.0812 and 8.1.0068, with and without Messenger Plus! Live. It also seems to work with custom and standard icons.

Discuss this in the forums.
