@eilegz: If you don't like using it, go get yourself Trillian or some other client and quit complaining. There are alternatives.

no there are not since my contacts use msn i have no choice than use it too.

its not about the client only its about the service.

update: Well everything it seems to be back to normal

I keep getting.....

Extracting file failed. It is most likely caused by low memory (low disk space for swapping file) or corrupted Cabinet file.

Oddly, mere days after the release of the supposed "final" build of Windows Live Messenger (Build 787), Microsoft have released a new build of WLM - 8.0.0792.

The few changes offered in this build are currently unknown. We will keep you updated if a significant change is discovered. You need to download the 15 MB (approx.) package yet again, as no simple upgrade pack is available.

Update: Additional localized versions have been found, you can download them by using the links below.

English

French

Spanish

Enjoy! :)

again! lol I just downloaded last night and installed for the second time because they said they fixed the sounds; but it was still the same sounds after all, I'll wait to see what's new from what others say....

It appears they have removed the "grouping sentences" when you type, and it appends to what you said last, that has been removed from either 790, or 792 or both. anywho, it's good to have it back :)

Mm, you guys should stick to the 787 version.

Is there a build 792? Yes.

Should you be downloading it? Not really. To be honest, it's not

officially released yet, test isn't done testing it, so you're installing it

at your own risk. We don't have a date or time that it will be officially

released. And, for what it is worth, you won't see any differences if you

do use it.

What changed? I really want to know! I've really said all I can. Sorry.

    • Absolutely NOBODY has suggested such a conclusion. I am affirming the sober reality check that AV2's overall market adoption will take longer than AV1's adoption rate -- which, by the way, is the whole point of the article! While PCI-SIG is productive (on paper), other WGs have created all sorts of confusing progress plans that consumers have tuned-out of their improvements... HTML/W3C, USB, HDMI, BT, WIFI (ieee802.11) as a few other groups where spec naming conventions, split progress paths, overlapping ambitions... I'm not critiquing the AV specs group; I'm simply affirming that adoption for AV2 faces headwinds beyond the macroeconomics of it all.

    • No thanks! WebView trash is unacceptable. I only use software that's native.
