New Windows Live Messenger

[boron]

I was informed through MSN :) that Windows launched its new Live messenger. You can call a friend, set up a video connection, invite yahoo messenger contacts...You get a website where you can collect all your online contact notices. It is like all Windows search in one. Features (http://get.live.com/messenger/features). Well, not quite fresh news though.

I'm using it, it's not bad, although it crashes for me quite alot.

Crashes - what do you mean?

[Jim]

Tends to freeze every now and then, usually if i chat when i just log on, or have a few conversations open. All started when my power supply went bust :confused:

Doesn't respond for about 20 seconds, sometimes have to just restart MSN :confused:

Not that much of a problem though, I tend to use xfire for general chit chat.

I've been using it for awhile, but it's been crashing on me a lot.

I think it was the latest update.

Its been there for ages. I dont like WLM. The emotions (smileys) sucks. I am an y!m addict.

Well, I think the integration with YM is a big attraction though.

Thats why I dont need to use WLM anymore. As I can chat with people having netpassport through y!m.
