Just a short note: some users on the lists reported that older MSN Messenger 
(4.6 and 4.7) use the libs (DLL's?) of a newer version (if it was installed 
on the system before) and thus inherit the behavior of 5.0.
As far as i understood it you have to remove the libs by hand (please search 
the list for details) and reinstall the old MSN Messenger version again, if 
you want to have the original behavior.
(I better spare now a comment about the Windows DLL hell :-)
