Hi

I have of recent been having major problems with messenger when clicking links people send and it the unexpectedly quitting on me. I also get it sometimes when I click the red dot to close the conversation window down.

Has anybody else noticed this, it seems to only have started since safari 3 was installed and I know its a beta so there will be bugs - is this one?

MSN Messenger for Mac is far from bad. Oh no. It's awful. Terrible.

I'd recommend you try out Adium instead. It is alot better and works with your MSN contacts/address etc.

There is also one called Mercury Messenger which also works with your MSN user, but lets you do cross-platform video chats.

yeah I have aMSN and Adium but all my emoticons are on messenger for mac and i dont really need anything flash for video or that.

I was just wondering whether safari 3 had caused this. Probably in the wrong part of the forum in hinesight but anyway.

Thanks
