Is It A Virus Or Is The Version Too Old?

LOL
4 or 6, I think thats still quite a lot of bug fixes. hopefully the SP's contain more enhancements than coding errors.

So, I have an iMac, but it's the origional one. I have Mac OS 8.6, and that's probably as high as I'm going to fit onto my computer. Now, MSN seems to have stopped servicing my old version, and I can't get any new versions, because of my system. Does anyone have any clue how I can get my MSN back?

are you sure you can't stick OS9 on it, I have a PowerPC 7200/120 with OS9 on it. An iMac has more power than the 7200 and should be able to go to OS9.
My Quadra 650 has OS8 and thats a 33MHZ box.
as for fitting OS9 on your iMac, i only have 1.2gigs on my PPC and it fits fine.

I would definetely see if you can go to OS9, which I am sure you can, don't see why you would not be ale to. Did you check the APPLE FTP site to see what updates they offer?

Microsoft is not blocking you because your OS is older. It is just blocking all older clients of their MSN, as has been covered in previous threads.

Search through the postings, also, try the Java client, which i have listed in the pinned topic - CHAT LISTING, and see if that works for you. It will work with any Java-capable browser.
