Just downloaded,definently not a beta,found this courtesy of neowin forum…….heres url
http://download.microsoft.com/download/8/3/c/83c4b2db-ac1c-4b56-8144-4472c0982f21/Setup.exe
🙂
Instead of pointing directly to the .exe file, I always prefer to get the URL for the download page (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=d83d02b2-c82c-4ba1-aec2-584aabb057eb&DisplayLang=en) which also allows for language selection 😉
I think I’ll wait for 6.1 to be featured on messenger.msn.com before I download that file though.
I’d say it’s the same as the 6.1 beta except with some bug fixes and some features that don’t work in the beta probably have been made active. But I haven’t downloaded it yet, so I can’t say for sure.
There is at least one topic describing what’s new in 6.1 beta compared to 6.0, so if that’s what you wanted to know, I’d suggest a search in this forum.This website says it is 6.1 but it’s 6.0. http://messenger.msn-int.com/ They changed this to 6.1 now.
It looks like the real MSN Mess. page. http://messenger.msn.com/
I downloaded the one that FrutZle pointed out and it is version 6.1.0155. Appears to be the same. Messenger Plus does work with it.
ok i refuse to download it from a link… when is msn messanger gonna update itself like normal with a little screen that pops up when u open it?
With Microsoft they are probably letting people test the final version before they have the messenger auto update.
The download is now also available from http://messenger.msn.com
As with a lot of companies, the developers and their bosses will decide what the users want rather than listening to the users. My guess is that they decided we don’t want an auto-update feature. Or maybe they were too tired after adding all these high-demand features they added in 6.1 and just didn’t have the energy to add an auto-update feature too.
