A new version of Windows Live Messenger has been released according to Bangkok Post.

One of the new features is called Windows Live Events where users can set up appointments and issue invitations to upcoming events that they may have.

A restriction function has been added so that parents can restrict the chat activity of their children.

Windows Live Hotmail now provides up to five gigabytes of storage.

When users download the new version, it will come with other programs as well such as Windows Live Photo Gallery and Windows Live Writer services.
