RE: Here's what I miss ... why I am pissed with the new Messenger
Consider third party Messenger clients. The last time I rebuilt my Windows computer, I installed Pidgin instead. It's not great. File transfers don't work; custom emoticons don't work; I imagine voice/video doesn't, but I never used those anyway. However, it is clean and functional, something the Microsoft's client hasn't been for years and is only getting worse for. Trillian is another third party option for Windows.
Plus! added a lot of value to the official client, but I think it's getting to where even Plus! can't redeem a miserable piece of software Microsoft seems to be determined to turn into complete rubbish.
