O.P. RE: Need some help with MSN 8.5 install
OK here it is, full out for you then. I click the little linky you posted it sends me to a web page where I click DOWNLOAD then it saves to my desktop I click it to install it starts up Windows Live Install (which I have done 3 times before now) It fails to install any components so I click Get Help with this (BTW in the forums here there are MANY ppl who have had issues with WLI) I have tried all the fixes they suggest but it STILL wont install so I follow the help link to http://download.live.com/ and THAT is where it dls the latest install which always turns out to be Windows Live Messenger Beta Version 2009 (Build 14.0.5027.908) and as we all know that doesnt work with Plus!
I have found the install for MSN Version 2008 (Build 8.5.1302.1018) which is needed for most of the skins to work. I have tried to install the latest version of  Messenger Plus! from the link you posted www.msgpluslive.net/download and it does not show up/work/it fails to load every single time! I have no idea why it wont show up since two of my friends have it and are using it just fine!

So it DOES install the Beta Version IF you know all the hoops someone has had to jump through upon following the links Windows Download Live sets up for you. Its not like I actively searched for the Beta Install because I am fully aware it doesnt work with what I want, Windows Live Install leads you to it after it fails to install!
