Ok...
MSN Messenger 5 with Plus!2 works perfectly.
Windows Messenger 4.6+ with Plus!2 works perfectly
MSN Messenger 4.6~4.7 with Plus!2 works perfectly.
Windows Messenger 5 WILL WORK with Msgplus. Not yet.

Windows Messenger is the MSN Messenger version that comes bundled with XP, that with the release of MSN Messenger late last year was sort of replaced by many users by MSN Messenger 5. Windows Messenger 5 is the new version of that different client, which previously were very similar, but now WM is more business-oriented providing access to other services than .Net (standard messenger). Still, Windows Messenger 5 is in beta and has not yet been released. Though, it will work with the next version of Msgplus, but we dont suggest to download it cause its very buggy. You should keep Windows Messenger 4.7 or MSN Messenger 5. If you are not using Windows Xp, then nevermind, you can't install Windows messenger.

Yes you're right;)



*When I say MSN Messenger 5 stable, I mean at least it's more stable than beta programs:lol:

Help!
I installed Windows Messenger 5, and now I cant remove it.. just great. just great.    You can install 4.7, but when you restart, the setup automatically loads, anyone know where in the registry to stop this?

Did you download MSN Messenger, or Windows Messenger?  They are two different programs.  Windows Messenger is for new comps, mostly Win. XP.

RE: Important note about Windows Messenger 5
Windows Messenger works under Windows XP and any newer version of Windows. MSN Messenger works under any Windows system (and there's also a version for the Mac).

The final Messenger Plus! 2.0 version will work with Windows Messenger 5.

dailo, I had the same problem as you did.... Windows Messenger 5 kept starting up, but that problem will be gone in the final Plus! 2.0 release. However, I still don't know of a clean way to go back to Windows Messenger 4.7, but I don't care as I have a version of Plus! that is "Windows Messenger 5 friendly". :) so I use MSN Messenger 5 now anyway. :p
