... I don't think you read my post above.

It won't LET me uninstall it.

Therefore, I can't install anything else...


Edit That link also tells me it's broken when I try to download, anyway.

Try using ZapMessenger to uninstall the Messenger Beta.

And that link I gave you definitely isn't broken as I've used it twice this morning, perhaps there's some wider issue with your internet?

I'll try that.

Maybe, since I've tried on all my browsers -- FireFox, Chrome, IE and Safarii, and all I get is an error.


Edit -- the official website and any/all that link to it, this is what happens when I try to download:

Screenshot link -- As I said, it happens on ALL of my browsers, not just Chrome.

Hmm, yes, it does seem that the website is now having problems, possibly due to the sheer volume of people trying to access it and download from it.

Try downloading from the following link, which was updated this morning

These obligatory updates are sooo annoying... second time.

WLM 9 was the best version, they shouldn't had to screw it up with 14.x versions.

Thanks to these pretty pretty links, I'll try get my beloved version back.

But... if I use this ZapMessenger to Zap my Messenger, will my emoticons, sounds and stuff get lost?

Thanks. ;P

9 & 14 are the same thing. WLM 9 BETA shouldn't have been publicly available so be glad you got to see it while you could, but don't blame anybody because some features got taken out.

The current version is considered as both 9 & 14 because 9.0 was the next expected version although they may have done several major changes in the way things work such as a new protocol, UIB files and new features such as scenes (and for a while sounds). 14.0.8050.1202 is just a more polished version of the earlier BETAS.

I think signature sounds will make a come back when MS can put the whole infrastructure together good enough to match the information they got from the sample uses.
