Hello!
I have two seperate hotmail accounts, and for each I have a different list
of Windows Live contacts. Is there any way of running two separate
WindowsLiveS simultaneously on one computer?
Thanks,
Albert

Greetings Albert,

Sure is, you can use Messenger Plus! for this. Just grab Messenger Plus
(http://www.msgpluslive.net) and after installation, click the Plus! menu in the main
Messenger window (or press Alt-U if the menu is hidden), then Preferences, then Messenger
tab, and click 'Allow me to connect to several accounts simultaneously'. Then you can start
Messenger as many times as you want and therefore log in using all three accounts.

Alternatively if you don't like Plus!, you can use something like A-Patch
(http://www.a-patch.tk), or Mess Patch (http://www.mess.be) to do the same thing -- in both
patches the option is labeled polygamy.
