Edit: Actually, I think it's something to do with my email. I got a friend to add the bot and see if it was online, and it was...
A random observation I made a while back is that the official MSN client from Microsuck seems to cache things. I'm assuming Microsuck is lazy and uses the same root classes in all the programs they create and one of these is to cache things (like IE does with webpages), only it caches the statuses of your contacts.
For example, I blocked somebody on my contact list and after a while decided to unblock him. But apparently my MSN cached when he was blocked, and so every now and again I'd look and see that he was blocked again, like Messenger cached that he was blocked and kept rebooting from its cache, blocking him again. The same seems to be an error for people not appearing online at times.
It's really lame but unfortunately Microsuck needs to stop being lazy asses and make software that actually does what it needs to without copying/pasting source codes from IE to cache everything. _________________ Current Site (2008) http://www.cuvou.com/

In relation to the above, does the Bot Owner and or anyone else have any possible solutions?
To be honest; I'd be happy to use another bot; that's totally different, but I don't know of any that are rated EXCELLENT. What would people suggest?
The main reason I stick to andromeda was because I made over 100 mods and subscripts for it when it was released by eric; which I used last year...They were all great, and I don't think any other bot is coded like it. _________________ Regards,
