I was just curious, how does msg plus! figure out if its compatible or not? like does it just read the version info of msn messenger/ windows messenger?

another reason i'm askin is b/c i have Longhorn, and yes i know its not suported etc etc blah blah but windows messenger is kinda odd the way they have it setup, just for ur info: quote from another form (http://www.pro-networks.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=205335#205335)

"....i'm lookin into and there is 2 .exe files in C:\Program Files\Messenger
1- msmsgs.exe (version 6.0.0101)
2- winmsgr.exe (version 6.0.4074.0)

when u click on msmsgs.exe it just causes an error and closes, but it doesn't harm winmsgr.exe when it has the error.

if i run winmsgr.exe in windows 2000 compatibity mode it runs fine, logs in no problem and i can talk to people. msn messenger still won't let me talk...

i would like to get msn messenger working so i can use msn messenger plus!, unless theres a way i can get it to work on windows messenger. but i don't think thats possible because its not gona work on a version that doesn't exist anywhere except in LH."

btw, the version #'s are alot different but i have not found any new functions or anything visualy different, i have read some ppl think its exactly the same but with a different version # for LH. also just and observation, winmsgr.exe (version 6.0.4074.0)  (the longhorn build i have is 4074.....(latest btw))
