I sign in and get the download button but can't press it??

EDIT you have to use IE hmm what a suprise...

[Mr Pump]

Hmm, seem to remember downloading it through firefox. This was earlier in the beta mind.

Oh, with this one the buton was there to click but i couldnt click it! very odd

not sure what to make of the beta, clumping text together is hard to get used to, and the new sounds too. Looks pretty though.

Thats what I think, at first I really liked the text clumping together, but now I find it ruins the flow of conversations a little.

I stupidly agreed to have hotmail transformed into windows live beta, now trying to read my emails makes me cry

[angelx]

Hehe, oh dear... I hardly use hotmail and not used outlook for years, it became a big joke and more of a risk than it was useful but If it aint broke.... msn was fine but the thing That was fun every Yahoo upgrade was new smilies (without paying!) just the fun stuff never mind the jargon

The text clumping can be switched off as can most of the crazy new things if they annoy you.
