Still haven't received an email, but MSN 7.5 contains more bugs for me than ever (impossible to send or receive files : it freezes completely for about 2 minutes and then it unfreezes, the file transfer becomes finally active but no data is being received/sent)

I don't think they will ever fix File Transfers because they haven't touched to it in many years... it's not even worth reporting this bug.

Otherwise I get slow transfers, no webcam, no microphone, impossibility to send a message, impossibility to send a drawing, etc. etc.

I got my email this morning but didn't get anything about dynamic backgrounds, weemee i got something like MeGoo and that was it, I guess it's based on how much you participated?
