Re: Windows Messenger Automatic Sign In



Hi John,

You end up with two. But, you can just ignore and disable Windows Messenger and use Live or
uninstall Windows Messenger manually (although Remote Assistance, Whiteboard and Application
Sharing will no longer work in Live Messenger with Windows Messenger gone).

Hi Jonathan

Just one more question which I hope is not a stupid one.

If I download and install the new Windows Live Messenger, does this replace
my existing Windows Messenger or do I end up with two messenger programs?

Cheers John
