Cant seem to find a download for either

MS ended support for IE on Mac many years ago. There are many suitable browsers (Safari, Firefox, Opera etc) and messaging apps (don't use it so others will have to advise) available, just not crappy MS ones.

Just downloading aMSN now so will see what that is like

Will give firefox a go too I guess

Some OK features in Firefox, but I still prefer Safari apart from after the last update it stalls with mpegs until you refresh the page after it's finished loading

Yahoo Messenger is quite good, I use that as my email client for my Yahoo addy too, leaving Apple Mail to look after my private email addy.

Just installed Firefox and Scoobynet seems a little messed up layput and graphics wise lol

Adium is an alternative, it is compatible with most chat clients including MSN and iChat

use adium all the time, it handles my .mac account and msn (as well as others) all in one go. You can of course use the mac version of msn from
http://www.mactopia.com , it just isnt the same as Live Messenger etc

As others have said, IE7 on Mac is a no-go, you're far better off with Safari or Firefox. As for MSN, there is the official MSN app, however it's far behind the PC version, it doesn't handle video/webcams (unless I'm mistaken). I also use Adium and have done for quite a few years. If I need video then I'll fire up iChat.

The Safari beta is cracking, very fast and most all of my sites now work and look just fine.

The WebKit Open Source Project

For Scoobynet, make sure you've selected the correct viewing mode from the header at the top (left, centred, variable).

PMSL, I thought I would give it a go, before I decided whether my next Laptop will be another 'PC' or a Macbook
