Windows Forum / Windows XP / Windows Messenger / March 2004Windows Messenger Advice
I currently have Windows Messenger 4.7 on the system which came with Windows XP. I have downloaded MSN Messenger 6.1. Obviously Windows Messenger and MSN Messenger are not the same. What I want to know is should I stay with Windows Messenger and get the update (if there is one and where do I get the update from?) or should I remove Windows Messenger and replace it with MSN Messenger 6.1. I don't use Messenger very often so I would appreciate the advice and comments.

Personally, I keep both Windows Messenger and MSN Messenger up-to-date but really only use MSN Messenger for instant messaging. I wouldn't uninstall Windows Messenger, if I were you (it's a pain to, anyway!) -- and would get the update. You never know when it might come in handy! Gareth J M Saunders Edinburgh, UK Thanks Gareth, I'll have both then and install Messenger 6.1. Kaylene > > I currently have Windows Messenger 4.7 on the system which came with > Windows XP.

Even though I've UNCHECKED "Automatically log into windows messenger" under TOOLS > Options> General tab How do I stop being Automatically logged in. It's a real nuisance. > > I currently have Windows Messenger 4.7 on the system which came with > Windows XP. [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > Gareth J M Saunders > Edinburgh, UK |
