This is a known bug in certain versions of messenger. I believe there's
an update available that fixes this. If you're using the most recent
version of messenger, please post the versions of messenger and OneNote
you're using, as well as any additional info needed to reproduce this.

Well, I give up.

I tried to upgrade my Messenger and the same thing happened.
I just switched to another IM client

You should spend some little time configuring it, but it's worth it. Is
less than the time and money I lost yesterday.

Works ok, don't have all those nice little extras, but, anyway; I want to
work, not to see another people's funny faces and those sort of things.

Apparently I was mistaken - the version that contains the fix has not
yet been released. The fix should be in the next major version, but I
don't have an estimate for when that version is coming out.
