I dont know anyone "avoiding" MSN.
I have been using MSN messenger for 7yrs and NEVER had a problem. But then again, I keep my anti virus and firewall up to date. And all my received foles are scanned (as are my outgoing ones)
I'm 99.9% sure that its also the only one that works for webtv as they "were" the same provider. *Microsoft*
