2x MSN clients on one machine

[puggit]

How do I run 2 MSN clients on the same machine? ie I want to use one login for private chats, and one to give business contacts...

Simple question really!

Two copies running concurrently or just either/or?

If you are talking about using Messenger and running 2 copies at the same time it is not possible. There are third party software applications that say they can achieve this but I wouldnt like to mess around with them. There is another solution however.....If you run one copy of messenger and start a chat with that either business or personal matters not, then log into your email via the msn web page with the other account you can log onto an online version of messenger from there (I beleive there is a button at the top of the page). Its not quite as fully featured but if you just want to chat then that will do nicely. I have done it this way myself so I know it works.

Try aMSN, you can load the application as many times as you want.

Yeah you can it's a patch called polygamy you can download the mess.be patch for the latest msn live messenger from www.mess.be never had an issue with it causing problems for me.
