MemberA sexy ad remover just fell on that site too :rolleyes:
To enable games on MSN 6 Build 0256 (Manual Method)1) X: > Documents and Settings > username > Application Data > Microsoft > MSN Messenger > (open up the directory with numbers).
2) Open ConfigCache.Xml in notepad
3) Search for “http://appdirectory.messenger.msn-int.com/AppDirectory/Directory.aspx?L=en-“
4) Make sure the line reads: http://appdirectory.messenger.msn-int.com/AppDirectory/Directory.aspx?L=en-US (US being the important part, it might be ‘UK’)
5) Save, close and re-open MSNJune 5, 2003 at 5:09 pm #95378shifter

MemberCopy and paste the link onto your browser and download rather than clicking directly from lycos.com/co.uk.
EDITED: By the way, I just downloaded MSN Messenger 6.0. 0256 from the link above.

ParticipantThanks Brian but it still won’t work for me:(. Even doing a “Save Target As…” just d/l the refferer html page.
Cage..tried that too just get the same referrer page that puts me back to where i started.
{EDIT} The Lycos links won’t work, but the aquadex rar link d/l fine, but turns out to be only a text file saying the following:

MemberI see, umm..
The only thing that wouldn’t work for me is the ad-remover. I’m not sure why or what I may have done for it not work for me. http://www.geocities.com/tonybkt/adremover.txt

Participantok found it and got it!
Go here to d/l the MSN Messenger 6.0.0256 Beta, Ad-remover, and Beta remover:June 5, 2003 at 6:08 pm #95382Cage
MemberBrian, that error was probably due to messenger not being shutdown? I found that even thou I closed it via the right click method, it still took like another 10 secs or so before it was free to patch.
As for lycos, I’m stumped there, try removing your temporary internet files or cookies. Failing that, slap it! 😉

MemberYo all… you can download MSN 6.0.0256 from http://msn6.shorturl.com – the old games patches etc still work, it just updates 6.0.0250.

You mean it only updates the games for version 6.0.0250 right?
I tried the game patches out on MSN 6.0.0256 and they did not work, also Cage’s manual game fix does not seem to workQuote:quote:Originally posted by CageTo enable games on MSN 6 Build 0256 (Manual Method)
1) X: > Documents and Settings > username > Application Data > Microsoft > MSN Messenger > (open up the directory with numbers).My directory has about 20 directories labeled with numbers which one is it? I can only seem to find the file “ConfigCache.Xml” under the folder with labeled as my email address. (The line you refered to was already correct)
Let me know when a new game patcher is out for 6.0.0256. ThanksJune 6, 2003 at 9:21 am #95381Cage
Memberlol. The update of 0256, I guess for security reasons, removes the email address folder names. (Email address folder names were where 0250 stored them).
In the folder: …Application DataMicrosoftMSN MessengerxxxxxxxxxxUserTile
There is a map.txt file, inside this will tell you which profile your looking at. I guess if you’ve got loads to sort through it must be pain.
ConfigCache.Xml does exist in the folders, at least everyone I’ve spoken to has successfully patched it.
I’m not a programmer and so I haven’t made an automatic process. I just mearly discovered what the program did and provided a manual method until one is made.
If for some odd reason you don’t have a ConfigCache.Xml in your numbered folder (once you’ve found it) copy your old one from your email address labeled folder, into your new numbered one. I’m sure if you’ve got the time and date sort the folders you’ll find which one is yours. The newest folder will be the last person to log on msn thats made a change to their settings.
I’ll speak to a friend tonight and have an automatic one made.
For now you’ll just have to sit tight.

MemberShifter I didn’t have to apply the patch anew. Try copying your old already patched configcache.xml over the newer 1?

MemberI’ve got the new release of MSN on my site to. With some cool avatars for your MSN 6.

Thanks man, I just deleted all the folders in MSN Messenger Folder and resigned in which gave me just one simple folder with numbers :D. Changed the xml to US and it works like a charm. Thanks for the help with that.
