Hi churin

I do not know about the WM v.5.1, but these two below are full
compatible with x32 or x64 Vista

There is a new Windows Live Messenger v.8.1.0178 available. This on
has more compatibility with all the Emoticons and Winks add on programs

'Windows Live' (http://get.live.com/

o

Windows Live Messenger Beta v.8.5.1238.060

'Windows Live' (http://get.live.com/betas/messenger_betas

BONUS

Here is a program called "A-Patch" that will allow you to customiz
these two. EX: Remove the ads

'A-Patch for Windows Live Messenger & MSN Messenger
(http://apatch.org/downloads.php

Hope this helps
Shaw

Have you actually read the download page? System requirements for WM 5.1 do
NOT include Vista.

Live Messenger is the one for Vista. It works just fine as does Windows Live
Mail that is an update of the Outlook Express application. I am using it now
to read newsgroups.
