MSN 7.5 and MsgPlus! compatability by taz030485 on 08-28-2005 at 11:10 PM

I have downloaded MSN 7.5.0299 and not installed it yet as I know there are some compatability issues. Would someone please be kind enough to list of all the features/options that don't work and any glitches that arise from having MSN 7.5.0299 running with MsgPlus! 3.54.132 for both programs.

Also is there a set date for the next version of MsgPlus! or is it still foggy?

I'm sure I seen somewhere that contact name changes weren't shown in the event log or something (maybe it was an old thread that came up when I searched for a problem that I had*-))
I know about the stuffplug problems, I'm just waiting for TB to release the public beta.
September thats *-) *counts on fingers* 3days away and ends *counts again, this time using fingers and toes, twice:$) 33 days, thats quite a time frame:P

If you are afraid of incompatibility issues I suggest sticking with your current version of MSN Messenger. The only thing that is new are the voice clips so your not really missing much.

And yes Plus! doesn't properly detect name changes. But has been fixed in the beta that we are testing.

I'm not afraid, I was wanted to know what what problems there might be between then two.
I just like to keep up-to-date, but I can survive till 3.6:)

I didn't mean it literally. I ment if you dont want the incompatibility then stick with a previous version of MSN Messenger.

Hi!

My problem with MSN v7.5.299 & Messenger Plus! is that when both are installed, it won't allow me to log on.  Forgive me, I don't remember the error message but I got it over & over for almost two days.

I disabled the few plug-ins that I had, then I uninstalled them...  still no luck.  So then I uninstalled Messenger Plus, and presto - no problem with MSN v7.5.  I went around in circles a few more times and resigned myself to uninstalling MSN v7.5 & reinstalling MSN v7.0.0816 & Messenger Plus.  They play fine together on my machine.

I now await the new release of Messenger Plus v3.6 which hopefully addresses this issue.

By the way, I tested disabling all startup programs, rebooted and still no luck (with MSN 7.5 & Messenger Plus) so I elminiated background programs possibily interferring.

That's my experience.

Cheers!
