Since the new version, or the so-called stable release, of Windows Live Messenger (build 14.0.8064.0206) was available for downloads, many of my friends have been complaining about its inconvenience brought by the yet modified UI design and its instability. In fact, most of them didn’t intended to apply the update, but the ANNOYING update balloon just kept popping up and said, “I will keep poking you until you install my new update, mate!”
As always fighting for the freedom of humankind, I can not tolerate this kind of rude behavior. So I yet modified the binary of Window Live Messenger 8.5, yes I did that again, to get rid of this foolish balloon. Because I have little time to rewrite Purifier recently, I can only upload the patched binaries for you, which are the same files I am using now.

Version: 8.5.1302.1008
Language: Taiwanese
- Ad banners and texts are removed as Purifier has already done for you
- Support for multi-account logins is added (you will need to run a Messenger process for each account)
- No update-reminding balloons anymore
Note: some reported that the packed binaries didn’t work on a clean system.
