also is there any non-shitty messanger people actually use? all the mainstream ones seem really terrible.
Miranda IM. stock install is basic but functional, and its incredibly customisable so you can make it look pretty as hell (its like foobar2000 but for instant messaging)

WOW AREN'T YOU COOL LETS ADD $ SIGNS TO A BUSINESS I'M SURE MICROSOFT IS PURELY UNIQUE AS A BUSINESS IN THEIR ENDEAVORS TO MAKE MONEY NO ONE ELSE DOES THIS

works fine for me, btw.

edit: oops was talking to them on AIM, so I tried it on MSN and you're right.

you're still retarded for adding $ signs to Microsoft's name.

edit: for example how is this related to $ in any way.
You're dumb. He was joking and this is clearly a fucked up practice.

But yeah I noticed this a couple of days ago when Cliff told me. On multi-protocol clients you can still send the links, but they get filtered out by the MSN protocol. On the native MSN client it simply tells you that the message cannot be sent if you try to send a YouTube URL. Also they did this before when they rejected GMAIL invites on Hotmail, but that was lifted after some time.

Holy cow guys, I just tried out Miranda on the recommendations of this topic and I just want to say thanks okay.

Actually, Tabbed conversations would be nice as would skins that actually affect the CHAT BOX which I can't seem to find.

for those who like to stick to msn, the program itself, use msn+ and apatch. msn+ adds scripting and skins I believe, as well as tabs and other useful features, and apatch lets you get rid of ads and other stuff that clutters up msn.

if you want chat box skins you probably want to install the IEView addon

I have MSN messenger open in my tray most of the time without me even realising it.

And I don't even use it anymore.
