need a mess. compatible with wind. 98 by luvamy on 10-13-2003 at 04:12 AM
I am looking for a messenger that is compatible with windows '98. I have already tried 6.0 but apparently it is too advanced or something. Won't work with my internet connection. 5.0 also doesn't work with '98. Please help!

msn messenger 5.0 should work, i think also 6.0 
any msn messenger under 5.0 won't work in a couple of days coz MS won't klet those clients connect to the server
try windows messenger 4.7 then

I use MSN Messenger 5 on Windows 98 and it works fine, but 6 should work too, unless you have an old slow computer. 
What exactly goes wrong when you try to use Messenger?

I'm also using windows 98 and have the newest msn (6.1.0128), and everything works just fine
perhaps try using trillian (can be downloaded from www.trillian.cc)
