you have to log out and log in with each user account , it can handle multiple accounts with that process. usually through hotmail.

it would be more wise to create two windows login accounts and login as each user.

malware will damage one admin account, two users on the same admin login.

best account setup:

admin: dont use until you need to.

your account
your sisters account

this way both sub users cant be affected by one foolish user and admin can repair both.

seen this a million times with clients

Or, open source -and therefore free- Gaim (that's for windows), or aMSN, or Kopeette.

But there's no need to if that's good enough for you as you can use two accounts with it. Dont fix it if it aint broke.

Gaim on windows is really buggy for me, I prefer Trillian basic.

Yes, the Windows Live Beta is very nice, and uses the same accout type that msn uses (through hotmail).
