Yes - Windows Messenger is in Vista (at least x86 version)- Windows Live Messenger is not.

Running build 5384.4 x86 Beta 2 and I can assure you that Windows Messenger is not included in it. I have been told that it will not be in the final release either. However, there are a few new features in Vista such as Windows Collaboration.

No, but you can download and install it on Vista, just do a google search for Windows Messenger 5.1. -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

Just use Windows Live messenger 8.0 You can get it from this page http://ideas.live.com/ I doubt you'll see another version of plain Windows Messenger.. Note that live messenger 8 is also beta software but I run it without any problems in Vista 5384
