    i gave up on it a while ago and have been using Trillian instead. There is loads of alternatives around, might be worth giving some of them a try!

    I whole heartedly agree. The new messenger is a completely abysmal. Thus would love for someone to upload an older version of windows.

    Re: MSN Messenger

    Thinking about it, won't you struggle, since they've been using the Live system that utilises on-demand downloads instead?

    Perhaps newest version plus the mess patch or similar might be the best approach... else you'll be hitting oldversion.com for messenger 8.5, three years old now I think?

    After 20 posts or something, you'll get access to the "Thanks" button.
