| | Multiple chat requests sent to contacts on signin Some of my contacts are complaining that they get a chat request with me and me in it when I do a multiple sign in. I believe they are using an alternate client, is this something that will go away by a change the MS does or will they have to wait for an update from the people that write their clients? |
