Re: Dumb Question - The Difference of these Three Downloads?



Greetings TeVan,

#1 and #3 are similar (we are at 7.0.0816 now though). The difference in the filesizes is
simply because one includes the Windows Installer and other requirements that are built-in to
XP and Windows 2000 (and 98 and Millennium Edition don't have).

#2 is Windows Messenger 4.7 and is a completely separate product to MSN Messenger.
