Woke up today to have msn messenger tell me I HAVE TO update to log in...

Now being one of the only microsoft products I use out of choice besides the operating system I wish they would just leave it be. Now it seems they have a big new installer / updater etc that trys to get you to install everything else with it.

I have always just grabbed a latest-ish version of msn and straight away put a mess.be patch on it to make it back to something useful and clean without the silly amount of rubbish they put with it now.

They just seem to be over milking the fact its used by a lot of people therefore trying to force them to use all their over useless things, live id's, the microsoft search page etc etc.

Hope a patch hurries up and comes out for this or I may have to go back to something like trillian.
 
They are trying to get people to use the whole microsoft social networking thing it seems as I'm getting updates streaming through the bottom of the window which is seriously annoying.

Also you select what you want installed out of all the stuff offered, windows mail, picture gallery etc which of course i deselected them all yet its still installed windows mail. -.-
