MSN messanger 6.0 and Outlook express

Gunna · 1st September 2003, 8:10 PM

Running Win XP SP1 and got sick of seeing the "A new version of messenger is available" etc etc.

So i un-installed windows messanger but the folder was there so i just renamed the .exe

I downloaded MSN messenger 6.0, installed it and ran it, but when i run outlook it still shows all my contacts as off line.

No big issue, just a small gripe about it. Anyway to change Outlook to use MSN messenger instead oif Windows messenger??

so is this 2 different question?

becuase if you dont want the contacters to be in that list in Outlook you just delete them...

and for the other you didnt really research your topic go have a look around OCAu there out thounds of the related topic!
