Anyone gave it a go yet?

Looks pretty much the same bar being a bit prettier and file sharing.

Is that windows live messenger?

 

def not a virus, its strictly for beta testers and I had to run a program which takes my msn connection thru a specific proxy.

the software is "findable"

 

You going to tell us where you got yours from then

 

"There is no MSN Messenger 8 yet. Not in public beta anyway,"




look in orange bit in pic

 

just noticed lol where is this "findable" then lol

 

Is that a turkey in one of them pics

You cruel b*stard!!

Infact its making me hungry now and ive not long ate something

 

Anyway are you going to tell us where you got it from?

 

DOWNLOAD FROM HERE

 

and you got this program where? ive got msn 8 but i cant connect

 

msn 8 uses a different proxy and only authorised users are allowed to log in.

the proxy for msn traffic needs to be changed to point at the msn 7.5 and below server, thus fooling it into thinking you are using the earlier version.

 

so is it hard to change proxys or shud i just install 7.5 again

 

Downloading

Stu is this relieable since its beta version, has it let you down yet?

 

Its quite easy to get round, I'm popping out soon and will be back on about 6pm.

If people havent found a proxy solution by then, I will host the files needed.

Good luck folks!

nope i dont understand so im not gunna know what to type in google either, ill just wait for you to come back later

 

Ditto, last week for me!

Cheers Ad! ROFL

 

ahhhh sorted

 

I'm sticking with 7.5. It was too much hassle when dloading the 7.0 beta.... Anyway...is it true that msn will eventually become a paid for service? I heard it was going to happen end of last year....obviously bollox then

 

once you download msn 8 you need to download this as well

http://www.msgshit.com/downloads/524

install that then you need to go into the msn messenger folder in your program files and click on the light blue logo that says "msnlaunch" and you can use msn 8

 

I'll wait for the official release

 

Ok got it working and first impressions arent good, the main bit with your buddy list isnt as good and clear, not as obvious someones online unless you actually look for it, havent spoke to anyone on it yet though

 

 

dunno whether to try it or not.

 

as rauri says guys, install that program before you try to sign in.

 

Its annoying though because everytime you sign in you have to do it via that strange icon in program files, which then loads up this thing to sign you in, yet another icon in the task bar.

 

hmmm

mine doesnt, it autostarts on bootup and u just sign in normally.

does it put a "13" in a red circle in the system tray?

 

i get a little blue radiation symbol in my sys tray,apart from that all is normal

 

Using it now

 

system tray, thats what i meant not task bar!

And no theres no "13" there, just a blue icon where by if i right click i get the option to exit it and if i do that my msn shuts down and i have to go back in programe files to click the blue icon agian

 

doesnt it autostart on connection?

 

i havent restarted my pc since i installed it, maybe i should do that then

 

its cack.
