I like that, when you send a message, and then send one right after, it DOSN'T have " xxxx said: " twice, but puts it in w/ the old message (kinda like the flood control at NW)

However, the sounds don't always work, and I'm hardly ever looking at my taskbar.

I've asked since day one for an option to turn off that damn bumper spacing/auto snap to window "feature" or whatever you want to call it where you end up with that ackward spacing at the top of both the contact list and the messenging window. I hate that! If I drag the messenging window up flush with the top of the screen I probably mean that I want it to be there, but no!! the damn thing snaps back down about 30 pixels.

If you can't tell that bugs the crap out of me...and do you think they could just give me an option in there to enable/disable this "feature" of coarse not. :whistle: :angry:

That is one thing I have requested over and over only to be ignored. To be honest I am getting really annoyed with the so called beta testing process where they supposedly listen to your feedback. I would bet money that I am not the only one that finds this to be annoying.

I HATE that too ! Everytime I move a window to the top of the screen, nope, jus bounces back down leaving that space. Why ! Ahh ! lol I can't standddd that either.

just got it working 100% but along side the player thing that comes with it, this also installs summut else that is doest tell you about

its in your add& remove proggies

and its names Windows Driver - MSN (usbccgp) USB (02/15/2002 1.2.0.103)

what the hell is this!!

Any more clarification on this ? I don't even wanna install it till I know what this is.

That bugged me because I was not used to it, however I found an option to turn it back to the way it used to be.

why would official WLM beta testers need a link, he is referring to people who are not testers asking for the link... funny tho, even if they got the link, they cant test it.

ideas.live.com has not been updated with the latest BETA, for me anyway.

The driver is for the upcoming Messenger Phones that are coming out for VoIP.

WLM Plus! Does not work on this build properly. Patchou will not be impressed.

Unfortunatly this is a leaked beta and therefore we arein't really allowed to share :(

Sorry dude. You'll have to wait till the official comes out later this month.

Converted the .wma's in the soundpack to .wav's for you guys so you can just copy/paste it into you X:\Program Files\MSN Messenger dir if you're using older versions- beware, back up your old sounds because you might not like these!

      Thanks free chatgpt. The issue is, with most browsers, is you shouldn't need tools to remove anything. It is the whole point of extensions. The only browser so far to man up and be honest that it needs money to function is Brave Origin. Don't like the monetisation and code bloat, have a clean browser for a one off $ charge. Firefox used to be that, but now it is a code bloat browser, hiding AI.
