We here at Messengermad.com have been told that MSN Messenger 8.0 is already in development, and a BETA product may be released by the end of this year or early next year. Messer still_tippin posted on the Mess.be Forums a possible feature list of MSN Messenger v8.0.

• Change of Messenger Skins
• Real-time Emotions
• Messenger Built Internal Windows Media Player 10
• Pause/Resumed File Transfers (File Blocked Extension Applied)
• Detailed File Transfer (Download/Upload Speed)
• Animated Display Pictures (.gif .jpg .png (File Support under Consideration))
• Mood Status
• Faster Contact List Loading and scrolling
• Public Profile and MSN Spaces Combined
• More MSN Space features
• New Hotmail and MSN Messenger Integration
• Downloadable MSN Messenger on Mobile
• News Updates according to Location
• Top 10 MSN Music Radio
• New Stylish Notifier Pop-up
• Downloadable Skins for MSN (Contact Window & Conversation Window)
• Complete Integration with Windows XPฎ & Windows Vistaฎ Codename: Longhornฎ
• Offline Voice/Message Machine
• Animated Buddy Icon Helper
• Display Picture Ratings


These have not yet been confirmed by any Microsoft Employee, but sources tell me that indeed this could be what is going to be packaged into MSN Messenger 8.0. Your probably wondering, why would the MSN Developers jump from 7.5 to 8.0? Well, they have went from 7.0 to 7.5 so you never know what is going to happen.

There was a scam program that was really a trojan that was called "MSN Messenger 8" made by some dodgy people. It had no offical connections to Microsoft or MSN at all, it was purely a reshacked version of MSN Messenger which also contained a trojan.
This is for the real version, not the fake trojan version.

Why even post stuff like this and start rumors in the first place? Wow, someones' friend's uncle said it, ALL PRAISE THESE NEW AND WONDERFUL FEATURES!

Besides, they'll probably drop half the stuff before release if that IS real.

The version doesn't say anything about how fast they're making it, its just a number...
