Windows Live Messenger makes it easier than ever to stay connected to the people you care about.
- Favorites and groups: Put the people you chat with most at the top of your contacts, so you easily see when they're online. Want to chat with several people in one window? Simply set up a group.
Ok, so whenever I try to install MSN messenger on my xp service pack 1, it says, 'there's a newer version available' and it forces me to download it (the newer version doesn't work on service pack 1) Is there any way for me to install MSN messenger on my service pack 1? Click on Download and install the latest MSN software and click “Install Now” 4. Click “Run” when prompted and follow the download instructions. On your desktop you should now see an icon “MSN Installer”. It may take up to a minute or two for the Installer icon to appear on the desktop.

- Share photos: Look at photos together, right in the conversation window and Messenger tells you when people you know post new photos on Windows Live.
- Customize: Show off your personal style with custom scenes, animated display pictures, and signature sounds.
- Mobile and web: Using a public computer without Messenger? No problem! You can chat on the web from Windows Live Hotmail or use Messenger on your smartphone.
Get Messenger and stay in touch.
