MSN 7.5Beta
 
Well just got hold of MSN 7.5 Beta, personally I like it, some minor improvements on the login GUI, going to need a new ad patcher, main things is the voice clip add on ( only works for 7.5 :( ) and a few other toys.

Anyone else here using it? :)

There is no link it's a closed beta, I was able to get a copy as I am signed up.

However it is reported on numerous forums to have been leaked to hell, I would post it as a .zip here but the admin may not like it, pm me and I shall zip and send it to a e-mail or over msn :)

Post a link to a leaked Beta? Hmmm now I would have posted one yesterday but I haven't seen that much difference in this version.

applied the mess patch to it, works just the same. Msn plus works fine as well, other than the improved sign-in page i cant see a great deal of improvements...

Re: MSN 7.5Beta
 
I had a e-mail, I never check the address I gave anymore seems I missed out on a few other tests, serves me right for not updating my e-mail address.

It seems that all it takes is M$ to release some sub-standard beta software and all the fanboys get into a rabid frenzy.
Sad...

Re: MSN 7.5Beta
 
I had 7beta when everyone was on 6.2 and yes crashes and in the end if I right clicked and sent message to contact it would always crash with the END NOW box coming up.

Plus backgrounds would not work.

This is a good beta :tu:

I just got the newer build 0.162 I believe it is from Softpedia.

I find some instabilities in 7.x final althought the last version seemed to have fixed them. I signed up for ms beta apps loads of times but have never once been invited so gave up.

The 7.5 leaked should be easy to get hold of but not sure if I want to play with it yet.

AndrewJ 23-07-2005 16:35

Re: MSN 7.5Beta
 
Well I am on the 0.162 and it is running nicely even got webcam conference running as we speak with audio.

No problems. :tu:

Stability of Betas can be system specific since no 2 PCs are identical once they are used. It only takes one webcam driver that doesn't interact with the software properly to bring a lot of instability.

Very true, nice to be lucky, the new voice clip addition is a handy bit of fun to have.
