    Cant remember where you get it, but there is a program that when you run at the same time as live messenger, it lets you login, as normal passports are banned from the new one.

    :confused: I used my regular .NET passport to login to MSN 8.

      Probably because you got an invite, so your password was allowed access. I have download the beta before and tried it without the program and it told me I was not allowed access.

        Ah ok, in fact before I downloaded the setup, I had to login to Passport.

          Sorry about bad grammar there. "invitational" does not mean what I thought it meant! :sigh:

            What do you make of it? There was something about it not working when I briefly tried it. Design struck me as a bit odd, didnt like it at first - had to make it blue instead of orange. Didnt use it long because I didnt trust the program i had to run along with it.

              It's kinda okay. The icons are a little weird and it is harder to get at some items - an extra menu/toolbar indirection level. The notification icon in the tray looks odd though.

                Wow. Chris sent me an invite and I installed it. When I ran it (actually it auto ran), it comes up in Orange and Green! Stop stealing our CP colors, MSN team! :-D

                  I promptly changed it to green and green. :) That orange is too garrish for me. ;)

                    I promptly uninstalled my copy. It thought the advertising in IM7 was pretty annoying, but in 8? Yikes! No thanks - there's plenty of other IM clients out there. cheers, Chris Maunder
