Risico Messenger is a full version of MSN Messenger 6.2.0205 in dutch, however all the menu items and buttons are in the same place as in the english version - so any non dutch speaking old school messers shouldnt have a problem!

Download Risico Messenger (DUTCH)

This was recently posted on mess.be. i was wondering if there is an english version anywhere and/or how easy it would be to translate.

this would be extremely cool to use in school(Y)

thanks

I would like an English version of this too :)

You may just be able to switch msgslang.dll with an English one. Haven't tried it myself (although I like the idea of Risico: may put it on my pen drive).

You can replace the msgslang.dll with a version 6.2 one it should work, because I know 7.0 doesnt.

gilly messenger

RE: Risico Messenger - English Version anywhere? by ~INVASION~ on 03-22-2005 at 05:43 PM

i dont think gilly would be as useful because it doesnt give the same functionality that this does, like not having to install anything. But even when i tried it, it had an instalation screen :/

RE: Risico Messenger - English Version anywhere? by M73A on 03-22-2005 at 05:49 PM

does gilly messenger work in english if you replace the .dll with the 6.2 .dll file? i dont have it on hand....:(

RE: Risico Messenger - English Version anywhere? by Ezra on 03-22-2005 at 06:21 PM

MSN Messenger doesn't need to installed :S... Just copy the folder MSN Messenger and put it on a USB stick, and doubleclick msnmsgr.exe, while working on a computer without msn and it starts... that's how I do it at school...

RE: Risico Messenger - English Version anywhere? by crank on 03-22-2005 at 06:25 PM

how about the reg keys that get made whyen msnmsgr.exe runs?

Those just save your settings. If you have rights to make them, your settings get saved and if you don't you just can't save any settings...

Excuse me, but the first thing I see when I run the program is: This will install Risico Messenger. Installation will NOT be visible to Administrator. Do you Agree?

yeah right ^o)

Furthermore, what is it? Well it is nothing more then the original version of MSN Messenger 6.2.0205 executable, with msglang.dll (dutch version), msgsc.dll and custsat.dll... all original files.

I can tell you already 1 thing: This will not work on all systems. MSN Messenger needs far more things to be installed to work properly. If MSN Messenger is installed on your system it does not only install those 4 files, but installs a whole lot more...

Also, all the registry settings will still be placed and used in their normal locations. Again far more locations then you think...

DUH! 8-) Like I said, it only consists of 4 original files of the original MSN Messenger setup (which normaly consist of more then 20 files needed!). And of course everything is in the same place; it isn't modified or anything. They make it sound like a feature or something special or so. Don't be fooled!

You can just as easy copy and use those 4 files to your USB pen drive or whatever and it will be EXACTLY the same and behave EXACTLY the same as this "special" MSN Messenger... (meaning: on some system it will cause more errors then anything else because MSN Messenger wasn't installed properly).

Am I surprised and do I find this "new" messenger cool? Not at all in the slithest way. This wil cause more errors then it will do good. And I'm VERY surprised that this is on mess.be news...

So, to answer the questions:

There is nothing special about this "Risico" Messenger... Just copy those 4 files which I listed above from your own messenger directory and you will have EXACTLY the same.

Yes it does (to work properly)!

Since there is nothing special about this "Risico" Messenger; it is simply a copy of the original MSN Messenger, it uses all the keys like Messenger normaly would.

By removing the files. BUT! every registry key used by MSN Messenger will still be in your registry!



RE: Risico Messenger - English Version anywhere? by M73A on 03-23-2005 at 07:30 AM

WOAH. CookieRevised:| the same 4 files?:O didn't mess.be know that then coz kinda pointless them posting it as news if thats all it is :undecided:

RE: Risico Messenger - English Version anywhere? by Caboose on 03-23-2005 at 07:36 AM

RE: Risico Messenger - English Version anywhere? by crank on 03-23-2005 at 04:29 PM

Cookie always makes such extended posts...
i was trying to say the same but i didn't feel like typing to much...
the fact is that the reg keys can always be found by a network admin ;)
anyways at our school we can just install everything :p no need for this crappy stuff.
