No one has mentioned how it was MSFT who made their Messenger software compatible with AOL's...not the other way around...in other words AOL is happy to share with the world...just download their software...but AOL never made Instant Messenger to be compatible with MSN's service...why should MSFT hack into AOL? Now if Billy boy wants to throw a few million $$$ AOL's way to sweeten a deal...They should gladly talk ;)
