    MSN Messenger: Displaying Chinese Words in "What I'm Listening To"..

    Hello,

    I recall having this working before, but somehow it doesn't now. I'm trying to display my chinese song information on MSN Messenger. It only is able to display english at this moment, and supplies me with '???' question marks in replacement of the foreign letters.

    Any help is appreciated. Searching online for this has been difficult. FYI, the OS I am using is Windows Vista, but I believe any help that worked with XP should work or the solution would be similar. The default display language of Windows is English.

    Set your MSN profile location to an English language country I guess.. It's really annoying how language settings are all automatic with all of Microsoft's LIVE stuff. For a while, it would set their websites to Chinese based on your IP, without the ability to switch it to English!

    Good question! lol... Probably somewhere in Live settings (remember, when you go to live, the language will be in Chinese. To change that, change the URL from zh-hk to en-ca)
