I logged into my computer this morning, opened Visual Studio and was told that I wasn’t logged into Windows Live Messenger. I’m not sure how this is a requirement for developers using Team Foundation System, but I promptly logged into MSN to avoid any further confusion for Visual Studio 
Business Objects & Crystal Reports 2008 also seems very generous, giving me -7937 more days to use Crystal! This message popped up after entering the full version license key.
I get this too! So much for banning MSN, clearly its now a work requirement. Thank you Microsoft : – )
MSN is banned at work?
