Windows OS Support by Shaggie on 06-25-2006 at 05:06 AM

According to the requirements for Windows Live Messenger, The Operating Systems that supports are the following:
"Microsoft Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows Millennium or Windows XP"  see: http://join.msn.com/messenger/requirementsXP

However, from what I can tell, Messenger Plus Live only supports Windows XP.  Why?  Are there plans to support the same OSes that Windows Live Messenger supports?

Thanks for your help.

Shaggie.

My Bad Sorry.  They upgraded that site, and the download does not have the name that I remember.  Nevermind.  :(

I usually don't make dumb mistakes like that.
