Go to the Windows Live Help site, search for 'Journal' and then top result. The download links are there, free:

Send messages in your own handwriting
In Windows Live Messenger you can doodle, draw, or handwrite your messages.

   1. Click the handwriting handwrite button .
   2. Format your handwriting with any of the six formatting buttons on the left of the screen.
   3. Click Send when you are finished.

If you can't use the Handwrite tab in the conversation window, install the following software:

    * Windows XP or Windows 2000 (with Service Pack 3 or later). If you're not sure your operating system is up-to-date, visit the Microsoft Update website.
    * Microsoft Windows Journal Viewer 1.5.
    * Microsoft Windows Journal Viewer Security Update.

i see

but hey i could not find it?! can u give me the link?!

thank you..

Link to what??? the links for fixing your handwrite problem are provided in Chris4's post above.

Also, Windows Live Messenger and MSN Messenger 7.0 and 7.5 are on different servers (If I'm not mistaken), hence why you may be getting disconnected in Windows Live Messenger.

I can't link to it because it just goes to the Windows Live Help site, that's why I gave you clear instructions how to find the article and I also quoted the whole thing, so there should be no problems.
