chiefie: II just had my first WLM8.0.0787 crash!

Me too. I've been using the Live Messenger Beta for months now without any problem. As soon as I installed the release version it showed the first crash - and reported back to the Microsoft HQ, somewhere.

Well I can say I made the beta crash....tried using it on dial up

Locked up and then wouldn't restart, even after killing all related processes.
