Comment(by NishaKitty):

 I had some additional thoughts on this. I think it's the way buddies are
 added via third party clients as opposed to the offical client. I had the
 following behaviour:

 From Pidgin: Readding him after deleteing him showed his as offline in
 Pidgin 2.6.6, signing out then in did not change it. After deleteing the
 offline contact then adding again I could see him but his nick name would
 not update.

 From WLM: He showed up on my list when I logged in. I deleted the
 directory Adrian refers to to make sure of it before doing so. It turns
 out after deleteing the same directory unlike my first experience my block
 list was still present also. Pidgin didn't remember my blocks.

 I think it's an issue of WLM storing things differently to Pidgin and
 that's what is creating all these issues, I might be wrong though with all
 the weird things happening. It seems like a minefield to use MSN at the
 moment...
