I have exactly the same problem.
Additionally, I tried to download the French version of Microsoft
Messenger 6.02 to see if it would work better. It was, in fact, still
the English version of Messenger.
Rebecca, if you are a Microsoft employee, why are you giving out a
Hotmail email address rather than a Microsoft one?

I'm not sure that Messenger 6.0 has been localized for French. I am only
finding version 5.0 available on the French Mactopia website.

I would assume for privacy's sake. Easier to dump a Hotmail account if
you start getting spam.

Actually, Messenger 6.0 is a packaged application that includes
localizations for several languages, including French. This means that if
you set French as the preferred language in the International pane of System
Preferences, the application's interface should open in French. However,
because the application uses the same code, this is unlikely to solve your
problem.

I use a hotmail account for privacy. Once someone contacts me via hotmail I
can then reply from my Microsoft account if needed. I do not want to post my
Microsoft account on the newsgroup as I will get spammed.
Thanks,
