MS Messenger in Win2K

[McGarill]

Suddenly during updates I've lost my MS Messenger.
I've been using Windows for years ... but this
is the first time experience. Any idea how to
recover it for videoconferencing?

I've installed SKYPE and it seems to work fine
but still I'm puzzled by the disappearing of messenger.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Thanks! I've got it back - I've found the MSN Messenger 6.2 for Windows
downloaded it and it works perfect. But why I lost my Messenger - still
it's a mystery..-

It's several incarnations newer nowadays, up to about v 8.2 depending on the
windows version I think

Yes, true but Windows 2K has some limitations as far as Messenger is
concern.
Version 7 works fine for me.
