View Full Version : Renaming Contacts in your list
MeatMan
December 11th 03, 05:25 PM
If there's one thing I can't stand, it's having a contact
list full of people who seem to feel it's "fun" to use an
entire sentence as their screen name. Half the time I
don't even know who the heck I'm talking to...
I can't find an option to rename my contacts in Messenger
6 -- Anyone out there have any ideas? Why would
Microsoft not make it possible to customize your own
contact list!? I have a few friends who insist on
changing their screen name more often then their
underwear and I'm starting to lose my mind over this...
HelP!

Thanks, Andy!
I'll give that a shot (...didn't even know about it!..) I
used Trillian Pro, but Microsoft's kinda' put a stop to
that programs functionality for the time being.
Appreciate the quick answer!

Hi,
How have they put a stop to Trillian's functionality?

Hi Jonathan
Trillian Pro is not working, but the other versions are.
I have tried in several PC's and nothing.

Hi Andy,
It should be working -- make sure you're using the latest version (the older clients were
made unavailable to logon to the .NET Messenger network of as of October 15th).
