O.P. Compatibility is a sweet thing
Hello,

yesterday, Microsoft released a new beta version of Messenger labelled "version 2008". Despite the lack of beta tags in this version, Microsoft insists that Messenger 8.5 is still in beta stage so no, this is not a final version. In fact, since the release, everything I've read about the new beta is criticism and I personally can't praise their new setup system. But still, a new version is a new version and Messenger Plus! got to be compatible with it.

The good news: you won't have to upgrade your Plus!, version 4.23 is still entirely compatible with the new Messenger. I'm continuing to work on the next big update which should be released sometime in October. Maybe then I'll follow the trend and release a brand new install suite for 32bit systems only ;).

Patchou

Blah, Microsoft. :tongue: First they want to release Windows 7.0 for 64-bit systems only, and now this. I still stick with my Windows Aero Messenger 8.1 skin. :)

Keep up the programming! ;)

Great to hear, I can't help but feel this update for Windows Live Messenger was a little useless.
