Default Messenger for Windows Server 2003?

Is MSN Messenber (or Windows Messenger) supported on Windows Server 2003?

I have found no official statement from Microsoft either way. The
documentation for remote assistance invitation contains a link that points
to http://messenger.microsoft.com, which opens a page suggesting Windows
Messenger for XP. However, that download page clearly states that this
version "can only be installed on the Windows XP operating system".

Greetings,

Both Windows Messenger and MSN Messenger 5 should work fine on Windows Server 2003.

It (Windows Messenger) should work, but if you choose MSN Messenger, you
should not choose the XP version because Windows Server 2003 does not
support UPnP.

Hi,

Messenger's UPnP capabilities are OS independent -- meaning, you can use a UPnP-enabled
router and therefore use file transfer, voice/video in Windows 98 (which has UPnP support
either).
