Let's try this poll again!

I've tried it, but I don't use hotmail so it makes it kind of useless for integration.

I use it mainly because I find it more convenient to check my MSN email account. Used to a POP3 account that I used as my main email and now it's a web-based Hotmail account. It makes my life easier a bit to use MSN Explorer.

The application itself could be tweaked more though. Takes up too much resources for what it does. I also noticed that it slowed down my system and does funny stuff once in a while.

The only thing I like about it was when I got online, it said "hi <my name> good morning" or whatever time it was. Other than that, it went along with the rest of my bloatware called Windoze Me.

Edit: blotware, bloatware....tomato, tomahto...potato, potahto....let's call the whole thing off

I said that I found it more convenient. And I only use Outlook Express as a newsreader, btw. :) And MSN Messenger will only open a new browser for me. It also prompts me for the Passport login, which annoys me.

I load my MSN account on my Outlook but I find MSN Explorer more efficient. And I sometimes like the fact that it integrates the various MSN services, although I only use about 3 or 4 of them.

Not on the Windows XP Passport popup.

I like the MSN Explorer's Hotmail interface. So leave me alone. :)

It's prettied up, for sure, but since MSN Messanger can't do AIM clients like it was going to, it's useless also. oh well!
