If we use Messenger as an IM only interoffice, do we need to upgrade to Skype?

 

Previous title - Skype Upgrade

No quiero que me lleguen msj de una persona ni siquiera al msn aunque lo borre de mis contactos puede comunicarse conmigo igual?

How do I update to the new skype messenger? I already have skype
So I installed Skype as instructed and so when I log in I have Skype but no longer a connection to Outlook on the bottom task bar? I really have little use for Skype right now but use Outloook all the time. Why is there not an auto connection to Outlook from Skype as there was with Messenger? Maybe I am just missing something? I can log into Outlook seperately but this is not really user friendly.

I have a question about MNS Windows Live Messenger converting to Skype.  I have an @msn.com email address with Outlook.  To access Outlook I have a Windows Live Messenger password.

I received a message that I have to transfer from Windows Live Messenger to Skype.  I tried it and it does not work for me.  All I want is an email program for sending and receiving email.  If I do not do the transition from Windows Live Messenger to Skype, will I lose my MSN Outlook email account?  Remember, I have to use a Windows Live Messenger password to access Outlook.
While using windows update I get the error 0x80040609 and it says mail and messenger could not be updated so none of the programs in essentials live will be updated, also internet explorer is gacking now almost every time I try to open it now saying the program has stopped working windows will close the program and check for a solution but it never is able to check for a solution as this process just repeats itself
I would prefer to avoid my Messenger being uninstalled or changed to Skype as I already have Skype installed.

I realize keeping a fully functional Messenger is not an option, but I would like to keep the program the way it is, even if it does not continue to work.

Does turning off Windows automatic updates prevent my Messenger from being automatically uninstalled when the time comes?

If not, how can I keep the program / prevent a forced update or switch?

Do we have to use Skype, will Messenger still be available?  If not will we be able to make our own emoticons in Skype like we can in Messenger?
messenger was put on my computer a long time ago and I didn't do it. I want to get it off of my computer. How do I do this?
I have been upgraded to Skype, now that I no longer have Messenger how will I be notified that a new email has arrived.  Do I have to be signed in anywhere?
