MSN Messenger Display Names Have Hidden Stop Words

In addition to passing judgement on your MSN sign-in name, MSN Messenger now gets upset about Messenger Display Names. If you use MSN Messenger, try using the word “message” in your sign-in name. I’ve no problems if some words are reserved, but it should be documented and the error messages should provide a link to this document. As it stands, the error message (”Invalid display name…”) is uninformative in the extreme.
