Using MSN Messenger and Windows Messenger at the same time

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.messenger (More info?)

Greetings Andrea,

The Hotmail functionality (to be more specific the Add-In functionality) was removed in
Windows Messenger 4.7.3000 and above. You can simply downgrade back to Windows Messenger
4.7.2009 here:

and use the Add-In here:
