Windows Live Messenger 14.8089.726

With Windows Live Messenger you can chat online instantly in real time with friends, family and colleagues. It’s faster than e-mail, more discreet than a phone call. Chat using a webcam, send text messages to mobile phones, and express yourself instantly online in real time with new, cool emoticons. WLM looks like you! Sign in with your own picture, create your own emoticons, and represent yourself with new, cool backgrounds! Ta da! It’s the next-generation WLM. Along with everything you already love about Messenger-your contact list, emoticons, instant access to your friends-there are brilliant new ways to connect and share your photos (and other stuff). As always, Windows Live Messenger is free to download Messenger and use most of its features.

Messenger Plus! Live 4.82.368

Messenger Plus! Live is an add-on for Windows Live Messenger that adds tons of features and extras to the software. Extend the possibilities of Messenger and make your experience a lot more entertaining!

Changelog(Release date:30/06/2009)

• Messenger Plus! is now entirely compatible with Windows 7 (RC minimum) :
  • The Messenger Lock feature has been fixed. A new icon is added to the tray in Windows 7 if an unlock keyboard shortcut is not specified.
  • The default Messenger Lock icon in Windows 7 has been changed to blend in better in the new UI (hourglass: shell32.dll,323).
  • Note: the jump list of Messenger will work properly when using the Multiple-Accounts (polygamy) option but  you’ll get the options for only one of your Messenger clients.
  • Tabbed chats display a proper preview (peek) picture with a list of currently opened chats. Chats waiting for input are colorized in the thumbnail and Alt+Tab or Win+Tab combinations also display the proper picture.
  • A couple of other minor fixes here and there to make the Windows 7 experience complete.

Windows 7: How to move Live messenger icon to the system tray

Normally the icon of Windows Live Messenger when closed, goes to the system tray.

So by using this trick you can change it back to function like in XP/Vista.

The below screenshots shows WLM minimized to the task bar in Windows 7

Now to change this to function like in XP/Vista is very easy, you only need to change the compatibility mode in WLM. Below are the steps on how to do that…
