Windows Live Messenger question

    Can anyone tell me whether Windows Live Messenger caches the contact list on the hard disk rather than the server? I'll explain my situation.

    I've added two contacts since installing WLM, but when I log in on another machine, using any version of messenger, these two contacts only show their e-mail address rather than their username unless they log on. Is this normal?

    I've also had a problem that if I use 7.5 rather than 8.0, one of my contacts always has a gleam (the orange star) beside her name, indicating that she updated her MSN spaces account, yet she hasn't since January. If I click the gleam it goes away but it comes back when I log in again.

    These two problems only started happening since I participated in the WLM beta, I suspect it did something dodgy with my account.
