hellllllllp
Microsoft and Messenger Plus! Live are two seperate things....Microsoft does not control Messenger Plus! Live and Messenger Plus! Live is certainly not manipulating people to upgrade.
Microsoft are forcing the upgrade because WLM 8.5 is now out of date. Resisting the upgrade is pointless.....I wouldn't mind betting that 90% of the people kicking up a fuss over being forced to upgrade to 2009 would have also kicked up a fuss over being forced to upgrade to 8.5
You'll soon get used to the new Messenger, many of us have been using it for years with no problems
They will probably force the upgrade ultimately in the same way they always have - by eventually preventing you from logging into the old Messenger
