Where to get Windows Messenger updates?

I visited the Messenger website by going to http://messenger.msn.co.uk/ but now that've released MSN
Messenger 6 they've removed the Windows Messenger references. I'm all for that because I don't want
this to have anything to do with MSN... but where are we supposed to go now to download WM updates?
IIRC it never appeared on Windows Update...

Thanks... I doubt I'll remember that URL easily though! Or am I mis-remembering and it does in fact
appear on Windows Update? Seems the obvious place for it; after all, Movie Maker gets its updates
put there. Did it come in SP1 as well? I'm just asking for the situation when you've formatted a new
drive and you want to update everything.
