Forcing Outlook Express 6 to use MSN messenger 6

[Sharon]

I have downloaded MSN messenger 6, however when I launch
Outlook Express it logs into an old version of messenger.
Could you tell me how to force Outlook to use the new MSN
messenger 6.

Hi Jonathan,

Many thanks for your reply. I'm going to try what you
suggested.

Just as a matter of interest.....I have downloaded
messenger 6 here at work and I don't think Windows
messenger is installed. Coincidently, when I fire up
Outlook Express, it automatically uses MSN messenger 6.

Once again thanks for your response.
Sharon

Hi Sharon,

This is a Windows XP only restriction -- if you're using a previous version of Windows at
work, it will work.
