No it isn't.  Why else is there a Tech Talk thread, a MSN/Messenger thread, and a Testing and Trashing thread?  Let the guy post, without you commenting on it. 

Just a question:
Will it overwrite MSN 6 ?

yes it will unless u do wut the person in a previous thread did 

mike2 it probly will because thats what all the other msn versions have done so i wouldnt expect this one to change. anyway i wont be installing it for a while anyway , i dont like how your dp is the same size as your contacts and quite a few other things like nudges would get annoying + i cant live without plus

-dt-: you can change the size of your and ur contacts dp to small like it originally was... problem solved.

also people may notice custom tabs don't work anymore... never fear daniel has released a new patch Tabserve patch for msn messenger 7 to make tabs work with it... and it removes the search box too...

now all we need is an ad patch and plus! and i'd like the new client...

btw.. to all those who don't like winks and nudges... they can be turned off in the options under the messages tab.

How to keep your "Display Pictures", "Custom Emoticons" and "Backgrounds" in Msn 7:

1) Install Msn 7.
2) Sing in.
3) Exit messenger (singing out isn't enough! You have to right click msn from the tray icon and click "Exit")
4) Click Start -> Run and type "%appdata%" (without the quotes) .
5) Open the folder named "Microsoft" and then the one named "MSN Messenger" (not "MSN Messenger Beta!")
6) Select all the folders.
7) Press "Ctrl + C" on your keyboard
8) Click the "Back" or "Up" button
9) Goto the folder named "MSN Messenger Beta" this time
10) Press "Ctrl + V" on your keyboard
11) Open msn  7
12) Sing in.

You should see all your dps, ces and backgrounds there!

Good lucK!

Edit: I found out that my custom emoticons where not transfered!
But the DPs and Backgrounds where transfered

Polygamy doesnt work, you get a connection error when you try to sign in on your second account.

There are some different polygamy patches and most are version specific. So don't expect that all the patches work with this beta. Anyways, it might be good if you provided exactly what polygamy patch (exact name and version or download location) you've used...

And on mess.be and neowin.net there are already tons of polygamy patches which do work on Messenger 7.

RE: MSN Messenger 7.0.0250 BETA

Must Read Note about the "Animated Display Pictures"

This is to all who are waiting and freaking on the "integration" of the "Animated Display Pictures"...

The "Animated Display Pictures" will NOT be the thing you expect!!!! Heck, it isn't "Animated Display Pictures" but Deluxe Display Pictures!!!!

Everybody is expecting that you can use an animated GIF instead of a regular GIF or PNG. This will NOT be the case!

So don't go like "MSN lied, they said they were gonna include this and they didn't"...

---

Why are you so negitive? the point of DDPs are that they are animated. And if you say they wont be animated please post a source so u can prove it

Another thing can this Messenger 7 be installed over Messenger 6.2 the after trying it out reinstall 6.2 over it?

I will only download it when the real version is there on the dutch msn site.. not earlier ...

also If there is I still wait untill msgplus has a new version for it... because msn is useless for me without msgplus
