Vista Speech Recognition And Live Messenger

I'm running Vista Ultimate. And when I pop up Live Messenger my Speech
Recognition/Voice Recognition cannot function: everything I say invoice
voice recognition asking " what was that?".

If I open up a Word 2007 window or a Notepad window, there is no problem
with voice recognition. Only with Live Messenger. Microsoft tech support
says that this is a legitimate vista bug I've discovered. O Goody Goody!
:-)

Can somebody else with a similar software configuration see if they're
having the same problem?

Thanks!

Ross

PS: this entire message is via Speech/Voice Recognition so it obviously
works under Microsoft Mail!

And yet, using the web based Microsoft Instant Messenger works like a champ
with Voice Recognition. This was initially discovered by Payton at
Microsoft tech support.

That would be nice!

But, alas, no.

I have exactly the same problem Ross. (I posted about i on 5 feb, but no one
has had any suggestions yet!)

I'm running Vista Ultimate and if I want to use live messenger, then I
generally have to have notepad open.. say what I want in that, cut, switch
and paste!!

Tiresome, but easier than stretching the arms out to type..!
