Posted by absorbation on Sun 24 Aug 2008 (11:39 GMT)

There were rumours that M2 of Windows Live Messenger 9 would be released to testers sometime this week. Today a new version of Windows Live Messenger 9 was leaked, showing what was seen in the leaked screenshots of last week. This however, is of the M1 build testers have had for a while, not the new M2 build, which was expected to be out this or even next week. Notable changes include:

  • The program now has real Window handlers, at least in Windows Vista
  • URLs in personal messages now are clickable
  • The groups feature has been updated and become more customisable
  • You can now have a favourite contacts list, which appears before other contacts
  • There are several glossy effects used within the program
  • Display pictures have been moved to the left in conversation windows
  • Conservation messages are now in bullet points when sent
  • You have now the ability to share photos with contacts

The new build does not currently work with Messenger Plus! Live, and will be unlikely to until Windows Live Messenger 9 is officially released.
