Also note: Do not use the shortcut link in the start menu. For some odd reason it points to the MSI installer. Go figure. Use the shortcuts created on desktop or in quicklaunch. If not there, will have to manually create shortcut from the MSN Messenger program files folder (msnmsgr.exe).

Unfortunetly,i think they changed servers and the older versions dont have that new server in thier script.... (I wish they did,i loved 0.97.040)

The little piece of software that was to get old versions of MSN Messenger working was called Sfyx. It does not work anymore, as per the creator due to changes made on Microsoft's servers.
Another online messenger service (for msn, yahoo, aol, etc)... http://wwwl.meebo.com/ Nice all-one-one installed alternative... http://pidgin.im/pidgin/home/ |
