messenger 8.5

I want to keep my MSN messenger 8.5 version. But i cannot log in anymore because a message pops up and says that i have to upgrade to the new version, and i did that but i still cant log in. The new version doesnt work on my computer… and when i click on find solutions online, it says that my F-secure thing isnt working properly, so what can i do to keep my old version?

I had to upgrade too since it won't let me sign in. Hate it but I guess it'll take some getting used to.

So what is so good about 8.5 that no one wants to upgrade. Sorry I am a chat illiterate. Dont know any good.
