msn/live messenger help?

wondering if you can run 2 msn's on one pc?? I have two different address's and would like to be able to see and talk to people from both contact lists...as opposed to having to sign in and out between the two...is this possible?? I tried to download and older version and all I got was a message saying I already have a newer version of live messenger and I needed to delete that one before installing another....HELP!! I know this can be done, I just have no idea how to do it....thx

    yes it can be done...just ignore the message and continue downloading the older one but make sure that the u are not logged unto the other one during the process..

    Sorry! It's not possible! I have both of those too! And well what I did was look at all my contacts on both and wrote them all down! Then I put them all on both but usualy I'm on windows live messanger instead of msn. Because I think it's cooler so I have the same amount on both so whenever I feel like signing on msn or windows live I always have the same amount of contacts!

    Hope It Helps! :-)

    I don't think you can but I have a friend that runs yahoo messenger at the same time as MSN, perhaps you can use your yahoo addy to download and use that one then you can put all your friends from one hotmail addy to that one and you will be able to sign into both at the same time!

    I know people with MSN can chat to people with yahoo as when ever she signs into both it comes up.

    Hope this helps you

    Stuffplug is an external plug-in that enables this. They call it 'polygamy'. You can find it easily by googling 'stuffplug'.
