MSN msgr upgrade by cel01 on 01-23-2006 at 02:18 PM

I keep getting the following "Upgrade" alert but when I go to my admin account and click on the prompt nothing happens. Is this the same as an update?

"A newer version of MSN messenger is available.  To upgrade you need to log on as an administer"

Is this legit or is this that virus one that I read about?

I am using version  MSN messenger 7.5.0311
OS  XP Pro

That's the real one, they are starting to roll out build 0322, which is the one you are been asked to upgrade to

Thank you for the info.

I have one small dilema now.  While in admin account I finally got tired of seeing the prompt so I had choosen the option to wait 7 days before notifying me of upgrade.

Now I no longer get the prompt in admin but still get the prompt in my limited user account.

How do I get the option to upgrade back in admin account without having to wait 7 days? I looked at everything in the menu bar and can't find an update feature.

Take Care

I don't know how you get the notification back, but i'm sure it's a registry setting. But don't worry about that, you can always download the new version from http://messenger.msn.com
