Is this for real? If so, can someone reupload it somewhere? because this link only downloads with around 5 kbps.

how come I signed up to be a beta tester for this program but It's still pending on the connect site...?
or is this fake??

Re: Windows Live Messenger 8.1 Beta by Jaded1 on 2006-09-08 20:58:35

It's not fake. Only Beta Butterflies and managed Interop testers got nomination invites and instant active status on connect. Give it some time. The beta just started about 9 hours ago. They already have the newsgroup up and I'm sure when they sort out the test scenarios (they currently are broken), they will start letting some of the people that signed up in.
