While browsing through some tech sites an article about a WLM add-on called Messenger Discovery Live caught my eye. WLM is short of most wanted features like plygamy, spam protection, reading messages aloud etc. For those who don't want to use the popular add-on Messenger Plus Live the Answer is MessengerDisccovery Live. This add-on has some features that I did not find in Messenger Plus Live . Some people may prefer Messenger Plus Live , but for now I would stick with Messenger Discovery Live. For more information visit Messenger Discovery Live. Give it a try guys. Enjoy!
