A post appeared yesterday on the Internet of a seemingly new build of MSN Messenger 7, it added new features previously not included in the final version (7.0.0777). However, the build turned out to be a bogus fake.
I didn't post the original news item here at Short-Media simply because it was obvious it wasn't genuine, but if any of you did hear about it and have installed the fake version, I recommend you uninstall it and go back to using the official release build of 7.0.0777.
Volv just pulled a prank by putting something in his nickname indicating that he had some sort of new build, and it got posted here. It was an experiment to see how fast a “leaked” build would spread, and Inky was used for it. Plus, it was pretty.. Succesful.
