It all just... disappeared. I can still talk to people via Actions > 'Send an instant message ... ', but my contacts list just magically... poofed. If it's of any relevence, I also have windows messenger+, but it's never given me any problems before. Help?

Windows Key+R
Type in 'appwiz.cpl' and hit enter.
Find the 'Windows Live Essentials' installer (Assuming you installed messenger using the Windows Live Essentials installer, if not, then find the Messenger installer).
Right-Click it, then click on 'Uninstall/Change'.
Click the 'Repair' radio button, then click next.

Does that fix your problem?
