Unforced prompt to upgrade to 8.1 has the wrong information

Looking at Mess.be just now, if you are a user of Windows Live Messenger 8.1 beta, you are prompted to upgrade to the latest official version. However the prompt says a new beta is available, which it untrue, it is the official release and it leads to an outdated 'What's new' page.

Now the only way I can see this mistake happening is if someone not on the Messenger team added the prompt and made the website information. In which case it is a poor way to manage a program. I always see it as the small things that count, the attention to detail is what is best.

OK, this is maybe not the biggest scandal of the year, I just thought I would past this 'news' on. Hopefully something interesting I can post about will happen soon.
