To tie in with the release of Vista, MS have created Messenger 8.1.To me it looks almost identical to the predecessor, but they've added in a few nifty features, including roaming identities (where your display name and picture remain the same wherever you go); the contact cards have been updated; the menus for emoticons, winks, backgrounds and display pictures have been improved; you can now send your contact picture as an emoticon and report abuse; plus a whole bunch of other features.

Yeah I updated the other day, there is nothing really visually different but there are a few new useful features.

Has it changed from the Beta version which has been available for about 6months or so?
I have been using it for some time with no problems and it is much better than the old version. Mainly a collection of small improvements and of course it looks better

Well Beta versions of anything are never perfect.
for example Vista was a Free download for over 2 years on Beta.

It is pretty much the same as the final beta though that is probably because the beta was near enough bug free anyway in my experience.
