Upgrade to......which messenger?
If I open up windows messenger, click on tools, then Add-
ins website, it leads me to the new MSN messenger 6.0 download page... Is windows messenger the same as MSN messenger, I thought they were different... Anyway, if i want to upgrade my current windows messenger 4.7, to the latest version, do I have to uninstall my current version first?, I cannot find any automatic update feature within windows messenger! Ahhhhh... for goodness sake, should I just uninstall Windows messenger and download the MSN version 6.0? and use this one instead...gooooood grief! Any help would be Splendid.

Just drop both, Windows & MSN Messenger.
Microsoft is mistreating it's customers really too much with this joke about 2 mess-anger-s. I repaced it / them by Yahoo Messenger : I have no problems no more, I have no questions, no doubts no more. I am a happy user now. "Ben" wrote in message ...

Greetings Ben,
You can find the Add-in he http://tinyurl.com/hfdh However, MSN Messenger 6 is not an upgrade to Windows Messenger 4.x, it is a separate Messenger client (which does run on the same network). In fact if you completely remove Windows Messenger, then some functions in Windows and MSN Messenger 6 will no longer work, like Remote Assistance, Whiteboard and Application Sharing. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Windows MVP, Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "Ben" wrote in message ...
