Windows Live Messenger 8.0 Works with Vista

02-06-2007

Windows Live Messenger 8.1 which is currently available to download from MSN
has some serious issues with Windows Vista. However if you download Live
Messenger 8.0 it works fine, no DEP or any kind of error. You can download
Live Messenger 8.0 from:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en

Although it is not the latest version but its better then not using one at
all. Hopefully Microsoft will find a solution soon.
