new msn messenger is bloody crap !

who thinks the new msn messenger is crap ? i do ! there are so many reasons.....

firstly, Microsoft forces us to install the new version, otherwise you can't use it ! how dodgy is that ? they are so up themselves ! they are taking away our freedom

secondly, the use of green, red, and yellow coloured boxes for availability status is such a copy of IBM's Lotus Notes!....Lotus notes has been using that design for many versions now. And when you look at a contact or you scroll over the coloured box, it doesn't tell you which status it is in words. So, newbs wouldn't be able to figure out what the coloured availability boxes mean.

thirdly, the email count only shows "99+" when you have more than 99 emails in your inbox, which i do. It doesn't show the exact number. So now I can't freakin tell if my email has new messages or not.

the new msn messenger is just bloody crap !

anyone else have more complaints ?

we should all boycott it !
