It's some of the official clients that will stop working. Quoting from the article: == «We asked Microsoft about its plans and what would happen to these various clients. The company tells us that contrary to the previous reports, the Messenger service /isn't/ being retired on March 15th. That date does represent the /start/ of the transition away from Messenger, but the service is set to operate for some time yet. On March 15th, the Windows Messenger client will be blacklisted and unable to connect to the network, informing users that they must install the Skype client instead. The Skype client will continue to connect to the Messenger network (as it does presently) and will allow communication with Messenger users.» «Other clients, however, should be unaffected and will continue to connect just fine. » == -- Johnny A.
