did you select it to use that skin too in the preferences, or just download it and think it'll set it automatically?

I've checked and its selected as the Active Skin. I'm guessing its due to my version of MSN. Not to worry, I'll have to cope with the stupid adverts .

You didn't answer to me. Does it appear with gray letters in the list of skins in the Preferences window?If it does, then it means that it is not compatible with your Windows Live Messenger version. If not, then the problem is somewhere else.

Where abouts do you mean? What should have gray letters?

The name of the skin in the list of skins in the Preferences panel should have gray letters if it was not compatible with your Windows Live Messenger version.

Ahhh now I understand you, yeah its a light gray.
It wasn't showing before because every time I went to the Preferences panel it was default selected and had the blue bar around it so I couldn't see the gray.
Now I clicked off it and it shows it as gray.

Thanks

A bit late, but yeah, I haven't made it compatible with WLM 9.0 yet.

Sorry lol, are you going to make it compatible for 9.0 ?

Download MessengerDiscovery!

time to resurrect this script...

MessengerDiscovery did indeed effectively get rid of the adverts, and gave you another inch of contact list instead - very useful.  However, I'm yet to get Discovery to work with WLM version 14, and it's also a rather complex program just to use as an ad-blocker.  Has anyone got it working on WLM 14 or put it into a stand alone script?
