today i tried to sign in to my hotmail account via WLM and the same thing that happened with msn 8 and all users where forced to upgrade to msn 9
now it is happening again and users must upgrade to msn 11 wich is not XP compatible and it sucks :/
how ever we can easly Bypass it, for those who want to stick with msn 9 like me
just download ResHack
open msnmsgr.exe with it (usually located in c:\program files\windows live\messenger)
when you open it you'll find in the left menu a tab named "Version Info"
open it, open the file in it
you'll see the number version of your current msn
replace it with msn 11 version wich is: 15.4.3508.1109
compile the code
save it and replace it with the old one, but make sure you name with same name and that's it
HOW it work:
upon login the microsoft notification protocol (MSNP) send the version of your client to the server including other information, so upon this info they can drop your session...
so we simply change it
