If you are on WinXP, which i assume you are since you used 7.5, you can ofcourse also get the renewed 7 version:
MSN Messenger 7.0.0820 for Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows Millenium and Windows XP
Rectification: Even tho it says in the system requirements of 7.0.0820 that you can run it on WinXP you are not supposed to do so. WinXP has gotten into the requirements by mistake, this will be fixed. MSN Messenger 7.0.0820 will only run on OS'es pre-Windows XP (with the exception of Win 95, people on that should use MSN Messenger 5.0)..all on WinXP and Vista will have to upgrade to Windows Live Messenger.

That workaround will probably stop working soon too, eventually you will not be able to sign in with 7.5 anymore! Users on Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows Millenium will be forced to upgrade to 7.0.0820.
