Hi



I have downloaded M6 and now I have 2 versions on my computer. The Old
version 4.7 still runs in the OE contact list. How can I get ride of the
old version and get OE to place M6 contacts in the OE contact list.

Cheers

Peter

Greetings Peter,

Unfortunately you can't -- in Windows XP, *only* Windows Messenger will show up in the
Outlook Express contacts.

You can however, stop Windows Messenger from loading with Outlook Express, just close Outlook
Express, then download and run this .reg file:
