Sp2 problem

[in2dblues]

I need to fix a problem with Sp-2 and my MSN messenger. MSN Messenger now
links my email to my MSN Outlook email instead of my hotmail email account,
and in addition to that, it no longer allows me to view my contacts' profiles
like it used to. How do I correct this. This wasn't a problem until SP 2 came
along.

Greetings,

It sounds like you're using Windows Messenger in SP2. In Windows Messenger in SP2, the
Hotmail functionality was removed. You'll need to either install the previous version of
Windows Messenger (see below) or install MSN Messenger
(http://messenger.msn.com/Download):

To downgrade back to Windows Messenger 4.7.2009:
