Windows Live Wave 3 Out


Recommended Posts

Fedora is right (though really needs to get used to the Neo way of talking).

http://patch.mess.be/?p=light

It CAN patch some basic stuff, I'd suggest trying it out. It is a Java applet that patches it, so you don't have to download anything. If you are using Vista with UAC or are running a limited account, you have to run FF/IE/Browser as an Administrator.

It is very basic though, and removing the ad in the main window doesn't work (yet)

This is good news though, it means that Ahmad will be able to do (at least some) patching too!

Good luck Ahmad! You can do it!

For sure there are still some options that can be patched, such as polygamy, nudges, etc but nothing to the UI.

Hmm... I'm not good at resource editing etc; but Microsoft will not be making themselves popular by doing this.

Damn :( If nothing can be done, or if the final version is like this, then I guess many of us will be considering switching client.

Well, thats not my way of talking... but post number means nothing. (just registered to tell the news to yo guys).

This 100000 post above me need learn some respect and to read things BEFORE attack, etc. Thats bad for the neowin forum.

Well, the news is posted and now I can back to my "espectator only" status.

BTW, good luck Ahmad, your patchs are nice. Looking forward for the new version.

Cya all.

I won't switch. Even as it is now it still is better then 8.5 for me. Only thing that annoys me is the ad in the contact list. But, I can imagine some people would rather have a lot patched.

I'd like to remove the contacts list ad and the one line of text at the bottom of chat windows. Besides that the rest of the UI is fine and 90% similar to what I had when I used 8.5 or the older 9 releases patch.

At the moment the current options available are:

Polygamy

Remove Advertisement (in IM window)

Remove Nudge Delay

Remove Nudge Shake

Remove Featured Content

Accept more than 3 files (transfers) at a time

Disable Windows Live Spaces Contact Card Integration

i'm happy for the one i underlined! thanks!!!!!!!!! you're my hero!

Praise be to God.

I'd like to thank TheSteve and also give shoutouts to Willz, Ipab, TB & Matt Hollwood for working on the "protection" work-around, now we finally go back to customizing Messenger like we used to!

So after 8 hours straight updating A-Patch for Windows Live Messenger 9 version 14.0.5027.0908, with no further adue I can finally bring you A-Patch with a whopping 56 options to play with! Some options were removed because it seems that the Messenger team implemented them wink.gif And some more options will be added in future builds God-Willing, including the "Preview"!

    • The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
    • It's growing on me, however, your right, it make better usability sense if the tabs were bellow the address bar.
    • Qwen 3.6 is better value per dollar, and you can run it locally for free.
    • I don't believe them that anyone using threads, at least meaningfully. It's the same thing for Facebook, people just don't engage with Meta platforms like they are thinking. This isn't 2006.
