While Microsoft MSN Messenger is highly available for Microsoft’s Windows users, Macintosh users would probably find that there is also a Microsoft Messenger for Mac 6.0. As the name suggests, it is meant for Mac users who wish to communicate instantly with peers, friends, colleagues and family members using a single application. This first Universal application is one that allows you to run on both PowerPCs as well as Intel-based Macintoshs.

System OS Requirement:

• Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later

With the latest release of version 6.0 (September 27, 2006), the following new features are:

• * Chat with Yahoo! Messenger contacts
• * Add a status message that your personal contacts can see
• * Share what you are listening to in iTunes with your personal contacts
• * Create, send, and receive custom emoticons with personal contacts
• * Send and receive custom animated emoticons with personal contacts
• * Search for conversation histories using Spotlight
• * Check the spelling in your instant messages
