537339 2007-04-01 00:02:00 Your contacts are stored remotely on a server, things like emoticons are inside the installation, however these usually remain. I say download the latest version from here (imagine-msn.com) jermsie (6820)

537342 2007-04-01 00:39:00 Its most probably running on startup (the old one).

Uninstall both again and reinstall the latest version.

537346 2007-04-01 09:09:00 Hi folks, why do we have to have this bloated Windows Live Messenger anyway, what was wrong with the old MSN? This crap takes so long to load up, it just ain't funny. Any comments, thanks Tony S. (450)

If u mean Windows Messenger the version that comes with XP, it was buggy it spammed, and it got annoying, when u opened OE.

One thing that doesnt happen with the later version/s. At least u can quit it, if OE is opened.

Anything made by MS takes ages to load.
