Re: Awful subpixel rendering (cleartype) in MSN Messenger Version 2009 (Buid 14.0.x.x)

Greetings Brian,

The only way I'm aware of is setting Messenger's window font to something else.

To do that you'll need to install Messenger Plus Live (www.msgplus.net) and then install a
skin which uses a different font, which you'll find here:

You can read the rest of the thread there for more info on this and what is affected by it
and what isn't.
