Where did you get the .063 build of Live Messenger from ?

My colleagues and I are still on .0566

We did not get any upgrade requests etc recently, do I just re-download from the Live Website ???

wase4711 did you do anything to your firewall, or defender, to allow it to get through? if yes, what?

no, I didnt do anything to my firewall...for some reason, I just tried to install this version, and it just happenned to work.
I did install it as one of the very first programs once I had 5365 up and running, so I dont know if THAT had something to do with it...Maybe try that next time you re-install 5365...

Anybody figured out the java issue and AERO. JRE6 worked great in 5308. But it turns AERO off in 5342 and 5365 builds, is there something else out there that works?

I'm running the JRE6 beta in 5365 and not experiencing problems (As of yet.....) I do get a good deal of "screen flashing" during logins and shut downs, but all in all, no errors or crashes from the JRE to my knowledge

You either need th forthcoming new version of Java --- alternatively, use the current Beta. I have never done so myself, but reportedly it works smile
