Updated MSN msg crap December 1 2001 at 2:06 PM		Phil (Login mrpip) Forum Owner

Well I did a stupid thing today when I logged into MSN msg, I updated MSN without waiting to hear for the reviews, but I do know people want the old version back and I sure as hell know why now, all that unnecessary colorfull fluff added... Again it installed aditional crap not required by the messager, again you need to remove "Loadwc.exe" from the windows startup. I went ahead and renamed "Loadwc.exe" to "Loadwc._xe" and "Loadqm.exe" to "Loadqm._xe". yet again to be sure nada, In the last version I also renamed a cab file "qmgr_.cab" which this update never updated. So annoying having to reset some of my defaults, the way I like it on every log in

also remove "Loadqm.exe" from startup.

This app wasn't in my startup at all... but I was on someone else's pc today when I saw this in the Ctrl+Alt+Del

After alittle bit of editing of graphics...

How to
create or use a photo, resize or crop it to w160 x h140, next, increase the gamma correction to fade it toward the white back ground or alter the brightness/contrast but preferably the gamma for better resalts, then decrease the color to 256 and save/overwrite it to "Program Files\Messenger\lvback.gif".
You may want to backup "Program Files\Messenger\lvback.gif" first tho but why would you want to have a copy of msn pics
