O.P. RE: BetterMSN 0.B.0
Installer - completely written from scratch, I hope you like it, it took a while...

Simple me - good suggestion, unfortunately I'm not clever enough to do this, but I know someone who is, and hopefully they should have a fix for me for the next version.

Danes error - figured it out pretty much, can replicate it on my machine, but its only "medium" severity, so will be fixed in 0.B.1.

3ni's error - this is a unique report, i.e. no one else has replicated it, are you running any MSN Addons that modify the .exe (polygammy or such), do you have MSN 5 installed at all, are there any windows on screen from BetterMSN when this jumps at you? If none of this helps, I'll build a debug version for you, which guarantees to pinpoint the exact error - I just need to work on some build scripts for a while.

I don't have to tell u ur program rocks (for starters, u said it urself), and I like it alot. One question however, is the BetterName feature already available or will it be added later (I mean as a function in BetterMSN)?

Not currently integrated, but it will be soonish. It was waiting for the installer, so now thats done it should be in there quite quickly.

RE: BetterMSN 0.B.0
I think the link tot he download is crappy??

It started to download it, said it had finished after 11000 bytes, and nothign happens (probably corupt file, cos of the size) and says it preforms illegal operation :undecided:

* Muss will try downloading again now, and will copy out error message if I get it again


11,146 :P

Error message = d:\Better~1.EXE

The NTVDM.CPU has encountered and illegal instruction.
CS.04e8 IP:0119 OP:65 63 74 20 61

Terminate and Ignore buttons

Clicking terminate terminates it, obviously, ignoring it brings up the message again, and ignoring that oen closes the installer :undecided: :S :|

Are you using a download manager by any chance, or doing Save Target As?
Because of the mirror system, it isn't a link to the program, its a link to a page where you select your mirror. Just try it by using IE and not clicking Save As Target.

What happended is you downloaded the HTML as an EXE and tried running it, no wonder it didn't work.

I would like a direct link, but sadly thats not possible with the mirror system.

I need really need to give you a DBG enabled version, I'll work on this tonight, and hopefully post it tomorrow or later on tonight.

No idea off hand why this isn't working, but DBG should pinpoint it exactly.
