Because having betas, expecially leaked ones, isn't cool.
I sometimes find myself confused by the fact that people prefer betas, not only for MSN Messenger but for all programs, rather than stable versions.

I understand you're point, but I do think it's neccesary for people to try and test betas and help improve them. And of course betas have stuff that stable versions don't have yet .

I believe it has become a "fashion" to have beta versions of everything.

And companies are getting the best of it, the more beta testers they have, the more bugs report they get. However, public betas (esp. for widely used programs) reports must be very hard to understand and not many will be useful, because many people don't know the difference between user errors and program bugs.

This has been discussed many times in many other threads. Bottom line: Microsoft DOES care about leaking and it IS harming to the community (to ourselfs). Don't bother replying, search the dedicated threads if you want to reply. Everything about this has been said previously....

Please keep this thread on topic

I think I'll stay on 6.2 for a while, atleast until Messenger 7 full is released. It's just not best with old machine and Messenger 7

Alright, no hard feelings intended .

i'll be using this current MSN 7 public Beta (7.0.0425). Then i'll upgrade to the final version of MSN 7 when it's released.
