Greetings Frank,

Yes it does. There is a private beta going for v9 at the moment.

Hi,

Nope. UI hasn't changed at all.

What I heard is that you can log on from different locations and can use a
gif as display pic

just wondering whether allowing the user to login from different locations
is a good idea?

Hi,

Other clients have had this functionality for awhile, although Messenger v9 frankly is the
first one to implement it well. I think it's more than obvious when you're signed on in more
than one location.

I leave WLM running in my system 24X7

when I am away from my keyboard, I use my mobile to login and the connection
in my system is auto log off

and when I return to my system, I'm simply login and the connection of the
mobile is off

if multi login at different locations is allow, I wouldn't have notice

Hi,

Why would you want to notice in that scenario? Either way, the feature only affects other v9
clients signing in. If you log on via mobile, it still disconnects you as always, regardless
if you're using v9 on your desktop.
