Messers skootles and xtian have reported that their slightly aged versions of Messenger Plus! are partially compatible with the new build of the Windows Live Messenger Beta, issued yesterday. And indeed, it seems like Messenger Plus! 3.61 (released in October, get it here) and older versions do work with 8.0.0562, although limited to a small set of features like the Messenger lock and the boss key.
Patchou however, does not recommend this combo and advises to uninstall Plus! as soon as WLM starts behaving strangely. The latest and the only supported version of Messenger Plus! is 3.62, compatible with all official versions of MSN Messenger. Like we exclusively announced back in December 2005, Patchou has already started developing Messenger Plus! Live specifically for Windows Live Messenger.
In other, more regrettable news: CustoMess, for the first time, was found to be incompatible with the latest Beta. Timothy is still hoping to find a workaround, so you can keep enjoying free, quality emoticons, MSN Display Pictures and backgrounds as soon as Windows Live Messenger goes public. Has Microsoft just given us the first profound reason to have an aversion for Windows Live Messenger? I surely hope not...
