Windows Live Messenger Beta 9

Windows Live Messenger Beta 9 was released on microsoft's beta page about a year ago, and has since been removed. I still have the exe file that installed it, and here are the mirrors:

enjoy!

Btw: although there are MANY MANY new and cool features (shown below) I have had trouble using the video chat feature, so be careful.
