Yes. Run Windows Live Update and it asks you if you to update as you are signing in.

it looks ok, but if you click "show details" it'll show Big Display Pictures which IMO makes or is gonna mean entirely more scrolling once you add Yahoo contacts an WLM contact, so i think they need to re-do that idea, make those pics smaller

Well I must say I do agree with you, but then you have to think of this. This is a NEW look for Messenger. It needs NEW icons. That was the whole point of the client going "Live". The icons look fine, but like you I prefer the old ones in the last build as well as MSN Messenger 7.5.
