Great! Let's hope they've fixed some bugs then.

RE: Windows Live Messenger 8.1 Released! by Patchou on 01-29-2007 at 09:46 PM

As far as I can see, the current release of Plus! works perfectly with it. Please post in the Bugs section of the forum if you find anything. Thx.

RE: Windows Live Messenger 8.1 Released! by Nagamasa on 01-29-2007 at 09:49 PM

Lets hope that this is almost bug-free...

And its perfectly in time for the launch of Windows Vista! (Or perhaps they purposely delayed the launch of 8.1)

RE: Windows Live Messenger 8.1 Released! by Kenji on 01-29-2007 at 09:50 PM

Finally, just hope it works on this crappy PC im on right now :tongue:

Exactly what I was thinking. I think Mess might be right, but as long as Microsoft didn't announce it yet its most likely not active yet.
