Does it not put a ton of sh1t on your computer? Is there a version that doesn't fvck your computer with a bunch of sh1t you don't need? God I hate this program.

Install Yahoo Messenger and get back to me.

Overall, MSN is *less* bloated that Yahoo, and AIM never wants to connect.

MSN Messenger FTW!

You can do messenger over AIM? Does it work with people that only have messenger? I don't think so. I have Trillian, but I don't show up as "online."

I use trillian to connect to MSN. I have no clue why people use MSN instead of AIM though.

Will MSN REALLY uninstall after I uninstall it, or will it leave sh1t on my computer?

so hunt down the stuff and delete it yourself. i have to do this with a lot of poorly-written programs.

Yeah, and you show up as offline to everyone else on MSN, right?

What is the bunch of sh1t you don't need? I had Live Messenger installed for a while and never noticed any problems. I don't really use IM programs all that much though.

Call it a fear of the unknown. I firmly believe MS will put sh1t on my computer along with Messenger when I install it.

Idiot, MS doesn't randomly plaster sh!t onto their software downloads.

WTF you must be retarded or something. MS has never bundled any random ****** with their programs. I've used MSN Messenger, it's fine. It's AIM and Yahoo that you need to look out for bloatware. As for Trillian, I see myself online just fine. You're doing something wrong.

windows live messenger isnt bloated at all...it just has some ad or 2 on the buddy list and a text ad on the bottom of an IM window. other than that nothing...and yes, i just signed off from it.

but i use AIM 5.5.3599 w/ Messenger Mate. works fine for me.
