The MSN Beta has arrived, and I'm a tester, will you test this?


No. Seriously. No.

Had it for a while.. The handwriting thing to me is the only coolest update. The test of the "wink" and "nudge" feature are SOO anoying that i disabled them. But i like the new layout of it and also the new popup thing when users sign in.

Basicly to sum it up, i wouldn't of minded to stick with the old one just give it security patches.

Also disable your text logging, it has an error in this beta so prevent error message just disable it, its your best bet.

Score of this beta: 7/10

Sticking with old version an its feature: 9/10

I think you only have the handwriting feature if you have Office XP or 2003. At least that's what it appears. I have Office 2003, and I have handwriting, but my friend's don't, and they don't have handwriting either.

whoa.

Use Trillian. Trillian is much better and you only need one client running for multiple messengers.

It saves memory and disk space.

MSN sucks, my internet security thinks it's a virus that want's to get online so it blocks it in a very strange way.

AIM works fine even tho the smillies are... gay.

Trillian works fine when sending files and that is all I need. There is nothing else needed in a messenger.

htf.. i never get it to work.. i just checked and i have to most updated version..

it always ran buggy for me.. i dunno maybe its the skins..

what skin u use?
and u send files to ppl on aim/msn?

i overall prefer msn cause its more pro lookin..
u can use your own pix for the buddy pic
u can customize the backround of each window with your own pic
web cam kicks ass.. never really used the mic tho
u can invite ppl into one convertion.. and not make a chat room
the "your info" page is much better
and i can make the windows transperant.. "the nvidia options"
it didnt work with aim/yahoo last time i checked

put it this way tho.. i do use trillian INSTEAD of aim when i need to be on aim.. aim is a joke imo.. they dropped the ball long time ago
