Is there anyway of running two instances of Messenger 5.1 (with LCS 2005),
logged on as different users; e.g. logged on as a user with his/her own
name, and also separately logged on as a "function"; e.g. "Customer Service"
?

Thanks

Roger

This isnt posible with either MSN Messanger or Windows Messanger, it is however posible with other MSN clients, for example gaim.

Gaim: http://gaim.sourceforge.net/

Of course with gaim, you don't have to use multiple instances as it supports multiple networks and hence forth multipule of the same protacall.

I don't know if this answers the question, but you can try:
Universal MSN Loader
