Hi Fly,
Interesting. How long have you actually waited for it to unfreeze? It might be worth
waiting up to a minute or two just to see if it releases.
Additionally, is this completely reproducible? In other words, can you launch Messenger,
open up a conversation window, close it and then it freezes -- without actually saying
anything?
Finally, do you have the message history on? In slightly older machines, after you've spoken
to someone and close their window, Messenger may appear to freeze as it parses and saves the
message history for that contact. If it's on, it might be worth testing just to turn it off
temporarily, do whatever you do to normally cause this problem and see if that helped or
solved it.
