I received the update and installed it successfully, was a bit gutted it wasn't a proper update would have loved to see some new functionality.

I'm not sure which Windows Live Messenger 8.5 beta users got the update and which did not. They have a managed Beta program for the Windows Live apps through Connect. I am just guessing here but it could be that only te Connect beta users got the update?

If you have the Windows Live Messenger 8.5 beta installed and automatic updates configured for Windows Update - its likely the update occured. You can check the history of installed updates through the Windows Update client in Windows Vista.

So was the test successful? I didn't recieve the update, but this might be because it was automaticly installed when someone else was on their account.
