New MSN messenger

The new beta msn messenger 7 is out. I think it's rather good.

Is it just the add-ins that don't work or MSN Plus altogether?

i couldn't get any of it to work, the auto-messages, the custom names, any add-ins. there is a messenger plus beta too, but i think i'll wait until at least one of them is no longer beta software

USE TRILLIAN

Postby MadDog20/20 on Thu Dec 16, 2004 2:23 pm

Trillian is way better. You get msn, Yahoo, ICQ, IRC and AOL all in one and it doesnt turn your computer into a sloth.

I listen to feminists and all these radical gals - most of them are failures. They've blown it. Some of them have been married, but they married some Casper Milquetoast who asked permission to go to the bathroom. These women just need a man in the house. That's all they need. Most of the feminists need a man to tell them what time of day it is and to lead them home. And they blew it and they're mad at all men. Feminists hate men. They're sexist. They hate men - that's their problem. ~Jerry Falwell

for me, messenger plus and the addins work. you need the beta version of plus (v3.4?) which you need to go onto the plus forums for.

Been using the official beta for a while now, its quite buggy in my experience, tho' some of the bugs may be from plus. if it werent for the custom animated smilies, i would move back. but my waving santa is just too good to let go ;)

Yeah, use Trillian all, you will never go back. It doesnt have the completely gay "cute" interface, no adverts, and theres almost no feature of it you can't control.

Me too. I used to have problems connecting to MSN through Trillian. The customisation was good but MSN Plus gives me quite emough.

Do use it for chat channels once in a blue moon still, though.

It's ace.. but I can see it would be frustrating if people were to nudge you all the time.
