For proper installation instructions (it seems you didn't installed it properly) see: http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=22276
For proper uninstall instructions, see the same post, thus: http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=22276

I would also like to know if this projects is dead
its been pretty long time there are no updates for this plug (compatibility with 6.2)
any info on that??

Handwriting has always worked for version 6.1 and higher, almost all hardcore Messenger users have Handwriting installed... (edit: just an expression to say that many many many people from the Messenger community have it installed 
)
Handwriting works very fine and doesn't need any updates...
See that thread for install instructions...

I found after the initial excitement, it got boring real quick. Its annoying how you can't see the status bar at the bottom of the window unless I make the convo window bigger.
Needless to say, it did work fine and dandy on version 6.2

It doesn't need any update, it works fine with the current Messenger version and it just enables that feature. Check the post Cookie mentioned for more information.

Change the colour of the pen from white? Just a hunch, very unlikely though. Best to check everything.

It happens to me too, I've got to switch to Write and then switch back to Handwrite to draw again... I'm using MSN Messenger 6.2.0137 and Plus 3.01.94.
RE: handwrite plugin question by Alien1344 on 09-17-2004 at 04:47 PM
i know i do that to but is there a way to actually get rid of it?
RE: handwrite plugin question by lopardo on 09-17-2004 at 04:50 PM
Not that I know... But let's see if anyone else is having this problem.
What Windows, Messenger and Plus version are you using?
RE: handwrite plugin question by Alien1344 on 09-17-2004 at 04:53 PM
6.2 msn and 3.01 Messenger Plus
RE: handwrite plugin question by TGG on 09-18-2004 at 07:13 PM
This happened to me before, but it stopped
it does this if the person you are talking to doesnt have the right version of msn or windows messenger, but normally it would say if they couldn't recieve it

I don't mind though, because i don't use handwriting very much anyway.
I just click on Type then back to Handwrite like you do.
