That's funny, cos I think it's rubbish. It has a habit of losing messages - ie, you type something, it leaves your PC, and gets lost before it arrives at the other end. Try having a conversation this way; you can't.
It will also show somebody as logged out when they're not; show somebody as logged in but not let you message them anyway; etc etc.
Given Microsoft have had 8 major releases, you'd have thought they'd have got it right by now, but of course not, it's par for the course for Microsoft software. That's before I even start on the clunky, cluttered user interface which has clearly never been anywhere near anybody with the first idea about product design.
I use it very grudgingly (with a different client) because unfortunately a lot of my friends are already on the MSN network. However, Skype and Google Talk both work much more reliably for instant messaging.

Surely that is questionable :shock: As it comes ready installed on your computer when you buy windows and the only really good way I have found to get rid of the programme and stop it trying to take over everything is to actually rename the folder it lives in....... I know there is a way to remove it completely but the only fool proof way to do that is edit your registry which you shouldnt have to do :x Can you tell I dont like msn :lol:

run-find files : find msmsgr.exe and hit delete
Install live messenger, go to options and remove the auto login and run when windows starts options.
