Okay, not saying I’m going to get one, but if…IF! I were to get one, which do people around here tend to use the most?

Yahoo instant Messenger.
I find it easier to use with less crash problems.

People seem to most

People seem to most frequently use MSN Messenger. In fact, it seems that no matter what social site I go to, people like to use MSN more than AIM. It tends to act up and disconnect sometimes, but I haven't had much trouble with it. c:

I use MSN as well. Every now and then, Ill use YIM, but only to chat with the people that dont have a MSN. c:

But, mainly MSN. Many people here have it, and I find it quick and easy, even though it does tend to crash a bit more than others. <3

{e} ^^^^ Yeah. The bad thing is, if you dont have alot of CPU left over from having EF open, it tends to crash alot more. But, Ive had it for a long time now, and its gotten alot better. <3

I usually download things with nothing else open, an exception maybe Google Chrome or the Internet. It wont crash and seems to go alot faster. <333

I use a slightly older version of msn, as the new one drives me completely nuts with all it's excessive information and things you can apparantly turn off. But is too much a hassle for me, ohpffff. This one works peeerfectly fine for me though.
I'll be adding you then! My adress is , I thought I'd give you a heads up since it's not an email people would quickly put in relation to me.

I'm using MSN too, wish it would let me use an earlier version but always forces me to upgrade.
I'm also on skype most of the time as well.

Thanks for the info guys!

Thanks for the info guys! I’ll definitely add everybody from here who adds me…if I can figure it out! LOL! But argh, I might have to just uninstall it, it’s doing wonky things to my computer now and making it run so slooow. Maybe if I can figure out how to download the older version of MSN? I remember I tried it out like 4 years ago and it didn’t do this to my computer. Blerg! I wants to message you guys. Sad

If you have an MSN or Windows

If you have an MSN or Windows Live account, you can log into it and talk to people with www.meebo.com. It's the only thing I use, because I keep myself signed into AIM, Gmail, and MSN with it. I must say, though, that sometimes it dislikes group chats and can be a pain sometimes, but it's worth it to me to not have all the different tabs open for the different sites. ^^

Righto! Let's see if we can

Righto! Let's see if we can get this working for you!

First of all, you'll have to uninstall the msn you installed. Best way to do this, is to go to Start -> Control Panel -> Programs -> Programs and Features.
Here, you get a list with all your installed programs. Click on Messenger, and then press uninstall at the top of the page. You may have to restart your computer.

Only when all the files are from your computer you can go and install the older version. I've made a MediaFire file for you to download, click here!. I'm pretty sure that's the older version. (If I happen to be wrong, uhm.. Well I have it somewhere! rofl)
I personally also expanded it with MSN+, because you get some fun features like drawing there. And I think it chats just a bit more uhm.. Forgot the english word. I prefer it. Click here for that file. Though it's not necressary.

Hope that helped!
