In previous versions of messenger, I would receive pop-up notifications of
my contacts coming online...in 6.0 I never receive the popups..... How do I
set this to receive?

Greetings Eric,

Firstly, check to make sure you have the options selected to show the alerts. To do so, open
up the main Messenger window, click the Tools menu, then Options, then General tab, make sure
the options under the Alerts heading are selected and click OK.

Secondly, do you happy to remain in the 'Busy' mode? If so, when you set yourself as 'Busy'
in MSN Messenger 6, none of the alerts will be shown. This is by design.
