'09 crashes when you run it though.
One, it crashes after it logs in successfully, and two, at least it’s a sign of progress, though. 
Others have either installed the MSI for WLM 2009 only and assumed that there was some mystical bug in it that couldn’t be solved that prevented it from connecting to servers or hit a roadblock during authentication.

What do you mean by “Crash” ?
Stopped working ? or Crashed by closing itself ?
Crash as in it hangs and ultimately gets Windows to intervene.
Oh
WLM has got the bends, oh no.

Update!
So one, @Craftplacer gets the gold medal for getting WLM 2009 past authentication and to the contact list!
Two, I’ve been able to reproduce the same exact results with HOSTS entries of tkrdr.storage.msn.com and byrdr.omega.contacts.msn.com, since they don’t exist in the main program’s executable itself anymore, and I plan to get proper solutions for patching those services developed soon, and I think I know where to look…

THE HYPE
IS REAL
rant rant war war
So I faced a problem. Accounts apparently can “die”. If you try to connect to them WLM errors out again.
When can we expect a pre-patched version of WLM 2009?
August-September i think.
Fantastic work, I look forward to the best version of the messenger soon
I encourage your work

Hello, I’m new here! I’ve been working on my own MSN emulator for the last 2 months and I made MSN 2009 work about one month ago. One of the problems that you had is that you were using the MSI version, which doesn’t install the contacts platform. Also, your patched dll seems to give problems too . My solution to log to my server with MSN 2009 was to patch the login url in memory (yeah, a trainer) and emulate the RST2 soap response.
Here is a video of the emulator in action: Msn emulator written in Java Spring - YouTube
I dont know too much Python, but if I can help with anything (a log from the server with working MNSP18 commands perhaps ) , please tell me.
Greetings!
