Hi, i was wondering which version of MSN Messenger you suggest i should use. My requirements are that it takes up as little space as possible, and that it has the feature where it pops up a little window on the bottom right corner when you get a new e-mail. I do not use it for chatting, or anything else, just for it's email feature. I dont have much space to work with on this computer, so im trying to find the best version for those needs.

thanks for any help.

I just tried installing the latest version of MSN Messenger on my Win98SE PC. (I already have it on my XP PC and it works fine over there, and I already have a .NET ID and password.) When I try to sign on, it just spins with the signing on picture, but never does. Then nothing else works quite right - email and IE 6.0 can't connect and I start getting blue screens. I just removed it and now am wondering if I should try an earlier version. Which one does anyone suggest? BTW, I use it for the IM functions.

I found another thread ( http://www.oldversion.com/talk/index.php?a...ct=ST&f=2&t=622 (http://www.oldversion.com/talk/index.php?act=ST&f=2&t=622) ) that suggests 4.6. Anyone concur?

P.S. I run ZoneAlarm 2.6.231 (the free version). Could this be the problem?

Edit: Ok, after reading several threads about MSN Messenger I decided to install 4.6 and it seems to be working ok.
