WLM isnt letting me sign in by Th3rmal on 01-09-2009 at 03:19 AM

I went out for lunch today, and when i came back, i saw that i had been signed out, now when i try to sign in it tells me that im not able to sign in unless i upgrade to the RC.

Any ideas on how to get rid of this? I dont want to use the RC until Plus! is compatible with it :(

Forced upgrade by the sounds of it.

Nothing you can do as far as I know. Downgrade to 8.5.

Yea i thought so too. I guess i may as well upgrade to the RC, i cant really go back to 8.5 because i much rather prefer 9.0 =/

EDIT: hmm tabbed chats and desktop contacts still seem to work, i guess its much more manageable than i thought

You'll have to do a bit of work to get 8.5 to work.

EDIT: I was just able to sign into 14.0.5027.908 by changing the version number in msnmsgr.exe with a hex editor. So if you're up to messing around and breaking stuff, its worth a try.

Patchou has just released a beta version to all testers and expects to have a public release online in around two weeks (could be before, could be after).

Yes, I got it working too after editing the version number. :) I'll wait for Messenger Plus! before I upgrade to the real new version.
