This problem has occurred a few times on a couple of different computers

Live Messenger normally shows a "tab bar" at the bottom of its window

No matter what tab I click on, said tab pages load with their links 
underlined and the font of said underlined links are of a larger size and of 
a different type then what you normally see after Messenger is first installed

I have tried a few fixes - So far no luck in fixing the problem

Please respond with some suggestions - Thanks in advance for your replies

Greetings Howard,

I assume you mean the buttons at the bottom of the main Messenger window/contact list?  All 
Messenger does for these is load up a small window hosting an Internet Explorer control.  So, 
any settings you've applied to Internet Explorer (in terms of accessibility, like a custom 
stylesheet, default font sizes, etc.) will apply to that window too.  That's the only thing I 
can think of which actually would affect that.

I'm curious about one thing though - exactly which of these are you actually using? 
Personally I find the ones I've seen to be rather useless (although they are different in 
each locale).
