Anyone tried this beta version?

Seems realy cool to me.. very different

http://messenger.msn.co.uk/beta/download/

 

I've been using it for a while now Stu - it's cool

 

Im still on version 3 I think

 

I prefer the 6.2.2 or whatever it was. One thing I really don't like about the BETA V7 is once installed you cna't get rid of it I went into start>control panel>add/remove and unistalled all MSN programmes and yet 7 is still here. Do a serach for it on PC (search drives) and it don't exist - YET IT IS STILL HERE

Don't like that, I like to be able to delete and instlal things when I want to, not do as the PC says - I know best, not a computer lol.....

 

Downloaded it a week ago and last night it crashed and I had too reload it.

Much better than the older version though.

 

not had no problems been using it for about a month now

 

Got it last night.....

Might take a bit of getting used to?

 

Yeah, it seems good to me at mo

 

i got told not to use anything as a BETA version so uninstalled it, kept crashing anyhoo, got rid of it np tho

 

Been useing it a while now! cant belive you have to pay to get the extra smiley! foookin rip off microsoft!


other than that! had no problems!

 

Got it, it's really good.

Only prob I have is when it tells you how many e-mails you have under your sign in name it tends to say 0 a lot of the time where in fact I have a few.

Love the nudges and handwriting and the fact you can choose your status before you sign in. ie you can sign in and appear off line. Overall a big improvement over previous versions.

 

Agreed 100%

 

AND...
You can load the PF smileys into it

 

well the handwriting option aint on mine whys that theres only 1 of my mates that has the option i dont get it

 

Maybe a newer Beta... get the new one from that link

 

and how do u load the pf smileys onto it ? cheers in advance

 

downloading now

 

no same again no handwriting option

 

How do you get the PF smileys in it?

 

stu your just always busy so you only need the one option!

 

Yeah, I wanna know about the smileys Stu!

 

we have it stu, i downloaded it by accident lol

i think its loads better than the last version.

 

has everyone else got the handwriting option ?

 

yep

 

i just dont get it ive unistalled many times and reinstalled with this link and still no fucking option

 

r u looking in the right place??

under the big SEND button is a tab called TYPE, and next to that is another tab called HANDWRITING?

 

tools...
my emoticons....
create......

And save the PF ones as files, right click save as, then load em in

 

Sweeeeeeeeeeet

Ta muchly

 

handwriting option is not available on all platforms. Works with XP though

 

ive had it longest by the looks of it, mate told me about it about 3months ago, and in that time ive never had any probs, and the email thing has always been ok aswell.

audibles can be a laugh aswell

 

im using xp and i know where it should be it just aint

 

I'll try and find out how my mate got the handwriting option working on mine.

I'm sure there is part of XP that doesn't install automatically, he had it already because he's a web developer.

 

have a look at: http://messenger.msn.com.sg/Beta/Default.aspx

look near the bottom, you need the journal viewer to do the handwriting!

Cheers

 

cheers mate and stu im right clicking the only way i can save the smileys is as a pic then it dont move and its to small

 

petet you my freind are the daddy

 

Last time i put this on it kept crashing Has the beta version you are using been updated atall? may just wait for the final version.

 

does anyone have handwriting on it because i downloaded it on two computers and one did and one didnt. Ive noticed a couple of problems in it aswell

 

whoops thatl teach me to only read the first few posts. ignore that then. i knew about it ages ago as u could download a beta, beta version that someone leaked onto softpedia

 

softpedia

sounds well dodgy that

 

it is. lol but not for the reason u were probably thinking
