Well it's not Microsoft it's there BETA testers. But anyway let's try to get back ontopic now. You can get polygamy of mess.be. However this is illegal.

And thus 5 is still the newest one (6 will proberly be buggy anyways)... get your facts strait and/or give details... (and this thread wasn't about skinning, so recommending Windows X isn't needed and useless)

If Patching (illegal) was "black", and non-patching "white", then using JnrzLoader is "grey"... JnrzLoader doesn't physicaly alter your MSN Messenger in any way...

O.P. RE: Windows Messenger Messing About...
Does this mean that microsoft wont come knocking on ur door and confiscating ur comp?
What are the legallitys about this? Ive heard you're not allowed to patch certain parts of Msn messeneger, msg plus stays within these, so what does JNZR do thats wrong?

JnrzLoader stays within these bounderies also. Like I said, it doesn't change anything physicaly in msnmsgr.exe. It alters some small thing in memory. Technicaly this is also patching, but it wont alter the msnmsgr.exe in anyway.
The same thing can be said about Plus!. It changes something in memory (in this case it's called hooking) so you can have other/more features. Plus! also changes things like JnrzLoader does, it adds things to menu's.
So, JnrzLoader is as (il)legal as Messenger Plus!...

what things changes plus? as long as I know, it doesn't change anything. Hooking is a technique where you tell the operating system (Windows) to notify you when something related to another program happens. Plus doesn't change in any way the code of messenger, it just adds some extra code of itself that is executed at some events. If that would be ilegal, M$ would have added that in its OS.

RE: Windows Messenger Messing About...
I meant it in the literal way "changing"... if something is added/removed, something has changed (no matter what method is used)...
There is indeed still a difference between JnrzLoader and Plus!. But the point I was trying to make is that JnrzLoader isn't realy illegal (it is, but it isn't... ah crap... blah... I give up )
