Messenger Applications

Question

I have Windows XP and Windows Messenger was supplied when I bought the compter. I now wish to use a messenger application both for audio and video.(I have a webcam.) There is now a MSN Messenger for Windows application. What is the difference?

Can I communicate with a computer user who uses MSN Messenger for Windows? If needed, how can I download MSN Messenger for Windows? Should I uninstall Windows Messenger?

Thank you...berngut
