Well, actually, I have just checked the FAQ on the MS site, and found this: >Is the MSN Chat control included with Windows Messenger in Windows XP? > >No. The MSN Chat control is not included with Windows Messenger in >Windows XP.

So, I would definitely NOT install the upgrade unless you already do have the chat control. As a rule I install NOTHING from Microsoft that is not asbsolutely required to run the system. By the way, the first thing I checked was the built-in check for critical upgrades, and was told there were none at this time (critical upgrades for the XP, that is). You are of course correct that it should not have been there in the first place.
