I'll be sticking with BETA for now.

I don't like being bombarded with ads!

And it seems my window opener alert wont work so I'll stick with the previous version for now.
Cluttered with load of shite? In what way, do you have a picture of it? :?

Its just got loads of rubbish in the menus and everywhere that I would never use - what do I need to "search" for?!

Incidently, does anyone have the version 6 install file? Everywhere I look now is pointing to v7. :roll:

Add me to MSN, and I'll send it to you.

I would upload it, but I've nearly reached my 50MB webspace limit! :roll:

I'm still trying it.. it seems slower than the beta.. and I've been trying to get Winamp to be the mediaplayer for the "now playing" thing.. and I'm failing :lol:

It doesn't allow sending either... People with Messenger 7 can't send me MP3s or several other file types (e.g. AVI/EXE) Zipping them or changing the extension works though.

Microsoft blocked some file types being sent for security reasons. You can get rid of this block using a programme called 'StuffPlug-NG' (http://www.stuffplug.com)

Does anyone know a way of reverting to version 6.0? I hate the new version :oops:

And what is the point of the "what I'm listening to" thing?! Why would anyone care what I'm listening to?! :shock:

I know, and it's gonna be a real embarrasment if I'm ever on the Windows PC and people can tell that I'm listening to Total Eclipse of the Heart [gets Karaoke machine out]. ;)
