RE: Build 566 Released
Well as we are going to be testing things on Windows Live Messenger recent builds I don't see how it hurts to update people about them.

Why move it? http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=561 94&pid=611330#pid611330 That's the public thread ^ I made this thread purely for the purpose of updating beta testers on the new build available. Oh and it is not actually public and/or...

RE: WLM Virus Scanning
I have issues as to exactly what exe and variable it is to scan files with Symantec Corporate Antivirus a well but it would be best if we could turn the feature off. Putting things in a .zip / .rar is an easy method to get around it or to rename it ...

RE: Build 566 Released
No problem and I think that Microsoft are now less concerned about leaking mainly because of the fact that they have CNI :) This is a private foum and it has already been stressed in many threads that information posted within here is to stay within...

RE: The new version of 8.0 beta
Yes. Run Windows Live Update and it asks you if you to update as you are signing in.

The fact they have that isn't a problem. The fact they dissalow us to disable it IS annoying.

RE: Build 566 Released
Yeah, not all of us had the problem. I religiously uninstall any previous Windows Live/MSN Messenger builds before installing a new one. But as Patchou said, stop the installation, uninstall any previous Windows Live Messenger builds and the .exe ca...

No, it will ask you if you want to install it after auto-updating. I just found my .exe and extracted now myself.

Extracing my .exe I got MsnMsgs.msi and bootstrap.exe Somebody remind me what the hell bootstrap.exe is used for again?

It's an .msi on your end :S?

C:\Documents and Settings\Larney\Local Settings\Temp replace \Larney\ with your XP Username and the file, for me, is 1t313BB.exe which is 13.5 MB (14,190,816 bytes) CRC of file 1t313BB.exe is 0x6AEDFB40

RE: Build 566 Released
It is advised to uninstall any previous builds before installing a new build but Microsoft don't seem to have put up the new build on Connect/Live.com yet. Run the installer again and Repair -- this apparently updates it correctly.

I don't need to reveal where I retrieve my information from.

Most likely tomorrow but of course Microsoft may change their mind.

We are not doing it in an uncivilized manner, are we?!? I don't hate everything about WLM as I have stated. We are all entitled to our views and there is a complete difference between Messenger and MessengerPlus. I salute the things you do to enhan...

RE: Do not get so mad to find build 0562... Build 0566 is coming!
Thanks Captain Obvious? That's like any old example. It's the principal and effects behind the outcome that is pissing people off. It's not just the fact that the features are boring and retarded but Microsoft is becoming an amazingly retarded co...

RE: Do not get so mad to find build 0562... Build 0566 is coming!
I have used Trillian and Gaim before but I prefer to just use Messenger and Apatch it because it probably has one of the most simplistic UI's out of all of the programs if you know how to make the UI simplistic.

RE: Do not get so mad to find build 0562... Build 0566 is coming!
Maybe you didn't read what I said. I can and I will judge/rip-to-pieces the software Microsoft makes because if I don't somebody else will and the more people voice their opinion the more Microsoft will listen. Yes, younger people want the crap fe...

RE: Do not get so mad to find build 0562... Build 0566 is coming!
More than 1/2 of the features suck. I don't base my conclusions on a small part of the program. Like I said in a previous post the UI doesn't bother me that much but you clearly didn't bother to read that part.

Hahhaha, that's the biggest bullshit i've ever heard it was mildly amusing. The 7.0 betas were interesting and the final product only had a few small things that had to me removed. Windows Live Messenger is by far the worst builds of Messenger eve...
