hey guys, it's been quiet a few days since i downloaded this thing..

When it installed it automaticly removed my old MSN Messenger along with Windows Messenger.

I know its new stuff and everything is cool in it and all but I have a little problem.

When someone comes online or send me an e-mail i am not getting alerts :S . I went to Options and made sure the alerts were checked, I unckecked them, checked again.. nothing.. i uninstalled the messenger and installed again.. w kamena nothing happened, still I am not getting any alerts or whatsoever.

It says:
Windows Live Messenger

Version 8.0 (Build 8.0.0792.00)

which I believe is the last official release..

Anyone know how to solve this problem ? i dont want to go back to my MSN Messenger 7.5 :D
it might be settings withing your computer, because I am guessing windows live messenger is built using new features from vista, because i encounter problems with it and windows media player 11. You can try to install msg live plus maybe it could help you somehow.
I did that as you said but got nothing..

However, i activated a sound for all the alerts.. and it looks like it's working now..

I'll have to keep testing it for the night, but looks good to me when you assign a specific sound for each alert

Weird
disregard that :( it screwed up again
