Is WLM 2009 final? by alegator on 01-31-2009 at 03:18 PM
According to Wiki it says: "On January 7, 2009, the same build was released as the final version of Windows Live Messenger 2009"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Live_Messenger
If so, where can I download it from? Also I read in this site that Plus! for WLM 2009 is still beta, so is it worth upgrading from build 8.5 or not yet?
Thanks

Also, Plus! is pretty stable too, despite being a beta.

Thanks everyone. I have a couple of questions before upgrading to WLM 2009:
1) I currently have WLM2008 build 8.5.1302.1018 installed. Should I first uninstall it or can I install WLM2009 over 2008?
2) Will I lose custom nicknames, chat history, and other settings?
3) If I export Plus Live! settings (v4.70.0.334), will I be able to import them into Plus Live! Beta for WLM2009?
Thanks.

Thanks.
2) No, chat history is kept in a certain folder.
3) Yes.
4) I suggest you wait for Plus! 4.80 so as not to update plus! many times.
EDIT : Sorry, I posted that before seeing blessedguy's reply was posted.

So then all custom nicknames I added from within WLM8 will be lost?
And is there a version of Mess patch for WLM9? If so where can I get it? Or should I use the light version of Apatch instead? Thanks
