AIM Typing Indicator Features Lost..How do I get it back?

[pharamn]

I lost the "typing indicator feature" when IM'ing a
friend and also the smiley faces that I can use with AIM.
I was able to see when friend started to type and also
include smiley faces with my writing. Somehow they
disappeared....Help

Greetings,

Firstly, just so you're aware, this is the group for Microsoft Messenger (MSN Messenger or
Windows Messenger) clients on Windows XP.

Secondly, you really can't "lose" this feature, more than likely what's occurring is your
contact on AIM has switched to another client which supports AIM but doesn't send the
"typing" message to you.
