Haha! Thanks a lot bro! / Muchísimas gracias hermano!

And yes, I'm here to help as much as I can

i understand that the change was important, but rc1 doesn't really work seamlessly.

i use windows 7 beta 1.
for first, the messenger's icon disappeared from my taskbar, but displayed my status. some pin-unpin cycle, and finally it appeared correctly. than, i want to change my status, from the taskbar, it's very slow, and cause i haven't seen any changes, i clicked many times. it use new process to change the status, so my computer slowed down, from the approx 40 running exes. and i only can laugh at the 'installing direct3d 9' part of the installer. congratulations, wlm developers.

My greetings szucsitg. Yes, you're right, the experience of WLM 9 with Windows 7 may be very frustrating sometimes. I have the latest release of that OS which by the way will be downloadable for the public in a matter of hours from their site. But that is a matter related to some buggy deals between Windows 7 and WLM. That's what I was told from W7 ppl at least. But you can still download the WLM 8.5 installer the boys posted a few lines up. It works great with both Windows 7 and Messenger Plus! Cheers !

i'm using build 7000, i think that's the latest. yes, i can change back to 8.5, but i like the new design, functions of wlm2009. so i stay, and hope for the best. the only reason i write my post, that even if they're tested the rc1 under win7, because it's integrated in the taskbar, they somehow 'forget' to test it carefully. and beside, they force you to use this s**t.

What you say is true! I can't defend W7 and WLW teams on that. They are even promoting in the windows 7 site to work with windows live wave for the best experience. Seems like they rushed a little. But WLM 2009 really rocks, that's true too. So I guess we are together in hoping for the best. Guys here at Plus! are working, guys at Windows team are too, and so WLW. Let's wait and see what happens ! I invite you to get your hands on the public release Microsoft is making in a matter of hours, so we can share opinions about this wlw3/w7 experience !

An edit to post 2/3,
you can't roll back anymore. At least, you can, but you wont be able to sign in [MS is forcing an update now]. I can't comment if this the case for 8.5 users either.
I just hope this gears P to work a bit harder.

I have both 8.5 and 9 set up and 8.5 still works like a charm. If MS was really forcing an update it would have a message appear that says "there is a newer version of Windows Live Messenger available click here to learn more", like with previous forced updates.

Most of my contacts still have 8.5 with no issues.
