New BETA version of msn live messenger

Has anyone else been offered to test the new BETA msn live messenger? Ive loaded it up just now and its AWESOME! The layout has changed somewhat and there are cool little extras been added as well probably to add a change to msn so that people don't get bored of it.

Yeah totally man! I like the eintire new format and all the random extras they give you that i will never use - but it does look cool to have!

The only thing that I can see that will probably make me do my head in in the forseeable future is the fact that it takes decades upon decades longer to sign in then my previous msn. Because it says that ive got all the necessary software etc, I cant figure out any way how to solve this problem apart from aimlessly biting off the top left corner of my monitor in unnecessary rage and fury. Also, on frequent occasions, when im typing in an msn conversation, it freezes my message at some RANDOM point and it doesnt show the rest of what ive typed until like 2 hours later...(BIG WTF)

So to prevent my inner demon from being released in the near future, which will cause me to burn relentless havoc upon my innocent desktop, could someone offer me a bit of assistance.

All help is appreciated

You have to remember that it is a beta version which means it is unrefined. The whole reason for there being a beta launch is to work out the bugs in is before releasing the complete version. Hopefully all the problems you are experiencing with it will be ironed out in the final version.
