How to sign in multiple MSN messenger Accounts?

April 2013

Opening multiple accounts on MSN Messenger or Windows Live Messenger can be done through add-on or through plug-ins for the popular instant messaging software. By default, multiple MSN Messenger accounts are not allowed. Messenger Plus Live and Messenger Polygamy are two software plug-ins that can be downloaded from the internet and used to sign in simultaneously on MSN Messenger with more than one account.Messenger Polygamy is available as a patch that can be installed easily. Messenger Plus Live provides more advanced features like personalized status, automatic reply messages, etc, in addition to allowing multiple MSN Messenger accounts.

Messenger Plus Live


Messenger Plus Live is an add-on for Windows Live Messenger which will allow you to open multiple accounts simultaneously. It also gives you lots of customizable features to personalize your account.
