description: I highlighted a security exploit in Microsoft Passport just as BCG moved our team to .Net IDs. While the vulnerability is concerning, I've found MSN Messenger 4.5 to be a solid update for messaging.

You can [hack into MS Passport](http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/22655.html). And just today, BCG decided to move us all into a passport ID using .Net. Still, [MSN Messenger 4.5](http://messenger.msn.com) is pretty good.
