Compatibility. I desirably want a good im that uses most major services. i did use trillian but since it hasn't been updated in so long. than gui and pretty stuff next. of course nothing looking like windows 98ish is impressive but compatibility is high for me.

i shall beta test.

I don't use MSN Messenger for its name. I use it for its features and because other people use it. :sleep:

I'm just saying iMessenger sounds like iNSTANT Messenger which is copyrighted by AOL they own the whole IM they have a patent, so becareful. :laugh:

Honestly the last thing I need is another IM Program.. can't you make a plugin for one of our already existing IM Apps.

hmmm i got all this

Yahoo, MSN, ICQ, AIM, XFIRE....ugh.. now another. :s

I don't use Trillian because I enjoy using the multimedia features of each application serperately.

the man has got a strong point there, why not just make a plugin for say miranda or something, which it'l be better since i already use it :p . Or you can go ahead an keep making the nMessenger as you said, hopefully many people will use. Good luck with it btw....

rotflmgdfao - yeah, all would be nice, but priorities:

1) interoperability between different messaging systems

2) Ability to load more than one instance of each type (I have 2 ICQ accounts, 1 yahoo, 1 AIM, 3 Messenger accounts, etc...)

3) very low resource consumption - in other words, write is in Assembly! (lol - all praise Steve Gibson)

New Update:

iMessenger is currently being coded by me and some people from my school, problem I am having is i need more programmers, And some more graphic designs if you are interested in any of this i am hosting a Meeting tonight on MSN messenger, All coders and artists were calling for you :D

Why is this called iMessenger, it's like something made by Apple.  How about calling it NeoIM or something.

dL

Sigh... Not Everything that has a "I" at the start has to do with apple and if apple dont like the sound of the messenger then we will simply change it. Plus "I" is A letter and Apple cant copyright a letter someone mentioned this before..

:whistle: :rolleyes: ;)

What will be the point of it? I can really see the attraction if its just for neowinians so you can just add people by neowin username etc.

I'm slightly worried that "Msn, Yahoo,Aim,Icq..Compatibility" is on that list ^ What would be the point in having neoIM at all if it was compatible? :wacko:

Why do we need another Messenger program??? Using the chat will bring more and more people to the site.. The chat is just like a messenger but better.... The chat just needs to be known to the whole neowin community...

Down with Neowin messenger!!!

Well :p to you hahahaha :D

News update on iMessenger

I am Adding a bit of Flash to it. :ninja: This Might Spice up the messenger you currently use, EG: Msn Messenger that uses The XML style. The Flash Will Probibly be the shell but i am not so sure for now i have tested it and it looks very nice. LE3 is Still Doing the Gui and i am still writing up the Program. But Remember The First Realese Will be In pure html then we convert to a full EXE :D

    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.

    • It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
