I had issues running Messenger from a Win7 hosted - XP Mode VM where I was
able to log on, but all the contacts showed up as being offline. I'm not
sure if I showed up being online or not... What I ended up determining is
that the issue had to deal with the IP address when I was running under. By
default XM Mode uses NAT to piggyback off of the host machines IP address.
As soon as I changed the settings over in the VM to use the host NIC directly
(so the VM got it's own IP address), all of my contacts showed up as being
online. You might check the IP settings for your machine.
