MSN Messenger 6.0 and XP

[Harold Jackson]

I can't get the new 6.0 MSN Messenger to work with my
Outlook Epress. Outlook Express works great with 4.0
Windows Messenger IM. But when I download MSN IM 6.0 it
tells me that I can only use one or the other. I tryed
taking the 4.0 out of the tree. But now it will not open
MSN 6.0 in Outlook Express. I put 4.0 back in the tree
and it works great.
HELP!

Greetings Harold,

Unfortunately, Outlook Express will only work with Windows Messenger 4.x (what you had
before) -- it does not integrate with MSN Messenger 6.

How about the new Windows Messenger 5?

Hi Mark,

Sorry about that -- Windows Messenger 5.x will integrate with Outlook Express as well.
