Fomine Real-Time Communication Server for Windows Messenger

Fomine Real-Time Communication Server is based on the industry standard protocols. That is why it is completely compatible with Microsoft Windows Messenger.

Fomine Real-Time Communications Server turns Microsoft Windows Messenger into a powerful network communication, file sharing and audio/video conferencing utility, making it a cost-effective solution for real-time communication within an office or an entire organization.

Fomine Real-Time Communications Server can be used for organizing voice and video conferencing, sending and receive instant messages, exchanging files or collaborating using the program's whiteboard feature.

Fomine's standards-based SIP instant messaging server provides effective real-time communication within a local network. The application works on all Microsoft Server Operating Systems, including NT and Server 2003, and utilizes all of the advantages these systems provide. It is a fully scalable server application, which means this utility can be used in networks of all sizes - from small mom-and-pop businesses to global corporations.

Fomine Real-Time Communications Server is very easy to deploy and setup. Managing users (accounts) is an easy process that is done through the program's intuitive GUI. Best of all, the program can be tried free of charge. The free trial version has a five-user limit and no time restrictions.

MSN Messenger for Mac petition

Dear msnfanatic

As a very popular, and very informative MSN Messenger fanatic website, I was hoping that you could post an article regarding this issue which I will now describe:

Microsoft has made 2 versions of MSN Messenger; one for Windows, and one for Mac OS X. However, there is a problem: the Mac OS X version is still missing many features even after all these years. There are many people who would like to urge Microsoft to keep their Mac OS X version up-to-date with the Windows version. I would appreciate it very *very* much if you could help me on my quest to change this inconvienence.

There is even an online petition about this issue. It is http://www.petitiononline.com/MSNMSG01

Thank you for reading this.

Sincerely,
Anthony Suarez

Having trouble with Messenger connectivity?

Windows Live Messenger

This is probably because the server status indicates their servers are having some minor issues.

Update: This seems to now be resolved, it also seemed to affect the server on which this site is hosted.

The change in server status was logged by phpMsgrStats.
