Re: What's Up With Windows Live?

You can remove most unwanted "features" with the mess patch or
the a-patch

You can find the mess patch on the left sidebar on this site (it has a link
there)
http://www.mess.be/
I cant give you a direct link, since I dont know the exact build you are
using or if you
are using the beta.. but there are patches for all the builds and the beta.

OR you can download a-patch here:

http://apatch.org/downloads.php

Good luck

Hi,

Certainly not. In fact there's plenty of instances where the patches have made Messenger
unstable (although in general it's usually fine).
