I've been using Live Messenger since the beta days (well over 5 months) and it is awesome. Highly recommended. |
Me too, I really enjoy this version. Fixed all the damn ANNOYING AS bugs MSN 7.5 had on this computer! This version gets NO COMPLAINTS from me.

I find it much more stable than MSN 7.5. New features, meh, sure. Only one I really use is the type to find contact list and how if you're sending a file it doesn't snap back to the bottom all the time if you keep typing to that person. But they're nothing special other than that.
|
YEA! How a window would AUTO scroll back to the bottom when you were trying to read text further up, INFURIATED ME to no end!
Plus, on my MSN 7.5 (I reinstalled many times to try to fix it), my damn MSN picture would change every time I exited then re-opened MSN. The picture that was on my MSN when I closed it down was NEVER the picture chosen when it reopened!
That, drove me nuts. I couldnt wait to upgrade to fix that mess! |

I'm wondering who uses the Windows Live Messenger. All these new features and stuff apparently, but who is actually using the new one? I had it for abit a month ago, then wen't back to the old one cause I wasn't use to the new interface and everything haha. I found it harder to see who was online, and who was away, because the status symbol is to small. I mean, it wasn't THAT hard, just bugged me lol. I'm thinking of switching to it though, to be able to send offline messages and stuff.
Some features I like are that it time stamps messages, and you can send messages to people who are offline, like ICQ back in the day. Apparently you can do that with MSN Plus though. |
I've been using Windows live messanger for 2-3 weeks now ,and don have any problems with it.
In fact i am very pleased with its features.
The best new feature about it ,is the offline messages , and also you can chat with someone who's using yahoo live messanger.
I think it's pretty cool. |

60342081 hooray
Also I used to use Trillian 3.1 Pro for the longest time, then I had a need for webcam and, well MSN and Trillian webcam stuff does not work.
So I use MSN 7.5 now, I used the last beta of Live Messenger and more than a few times it was using over 300MB of my memory. , even my 1GB isn't enough. |

Don't like it at all. Had it when it first came out..5 months ago? Don't like the lay out, and nothing is THAT special about it. I'll stay with my 7.5 plus. The onlt good things is the offline messages I suppose. |

No, but it IS for the search function... type in letters from a contact's email addy or that would be in their current name, and it auto eliminates all other contacts that dont conform to your search criteria thus far... |
oh! just like in ICQ98a!

And, also, some ppl who really switch up their msn names all the time are hard to track down till u figure out what their new variation is (sometimes there is no constant or consistent factor to their msn name to give u a hint), so if u even know a portion of their email addy, they're tracked down IMMEDIATELY. Its really nice. |
in ICQ98a i usually just renamed the person .. then it sorts everything out alphabetically and all you'd have to do is type the first letter of that person's name..

| Newer version(s) doesn't have any features I care to use, so, my hacked up 7.0 will do just fine. |

| Sending messages to offline users makes it worth the upgrade. a-patch is available for live as well, makes it look all nace and clean. |

It's a patch for msn that allows you to hack/customize your msn. You can get rid of all the ads and so on that come with it. I think i posted a link to it earlier in the thread. |
