Hi,

Actually the answer to this is based on what functionality you're using. Audio is compatible
through the versions but MSN Messenger 6 has some new video support that requires another MSN
Messenger 6 client. However, the MSN Messenger 6 client can initiate and accept the
older-style video functionality that is in Windows Messenger and you've already indicated the
video is working.
