MSN Messenger Issues

[aimeej]

Seems like the version of MSN Messenger that comes w/ WM6 has more features than the last version, but for some reason it is missing a few key things!!!

-I can't copy text from messages that people send me
-If I get sent a URL/link, I can't click on it to open it up in the browser.

Any ideas?

Somewhere I read that the version that comes with the phone is actually using SMS (and therefore your text messages), and not utilizing the monthly bandwidth that is a part of your service. Is this true? Think it also said that Windows Live was removed completely (messenger, search, etc) by AT&T. Can you download this anywhere?

Thanks!

Yeah, the Oz IM that comes installed on the Tilt uses SMS, not data. There are alternative instant messaging programs available that will use data instead (Palringo and Fring are a couple I use) but neither one of those will let you open a browser link, I've not tried copying text though. WLM is available in the stickied area of this forum concerning cabs and such - just look there and you'll find it.
