What do you mean by, "Got windows live on your device"? Is there an app, or are you just using Internet Explorer to browse to http://mobile.live.com

@dny238: you can get windows live mobile for wm5 by searching the forums or form the ftp

@mrmrmrmr: indeed it is possible as i have it on mine

how to: ok i have only tested this on the htc AKU 3.3 test rom but it worked and it seems to left poket msn installed after installing windows live

basically all i needed to do was to enter the windows folder of my device and found a file called INSTMSGR with an msn messenger icon it loaded msn messenger (the old one that came with the device) and pocket msn appeared again in the start menu

please leave feedback on whethere this worked for you tell me your rom version aswell so i know which ones it willl work on and which ones it won't

will post screenshots as soon as i have time

Hey a bit side tracking but just want to point out, I've been trying windows live (the app version) on my SPV M3100. And basically it blows pocket msn, the web based Live and in fact any other messenger app out of the water. Its so easy and functional. First time MS got something right in a long while.
Just wish my wifi connection didnt cut off every time the phone went into sleep mode.
If you aint got Windows Live Messenger get it now.

( :p I should ask MS to pay me for the free promotion)

after fiddling with my old charmer I found an easier way to do it as the other method didn't work

go to windows folder, start menu, programs and set it to show all files the poket msn icon will apear but still won't appear in start menu so just copy and past a short cut to the same folder and voila poket msn and windows live at the same time and this does work

great if you have a personal and business email accounts and you want to moniter them both
