Microsoft Agent 2.0 Setup
Microsoft® Agents are animated characters that can move around the screen and talk to you. Windows 2000 & ME comes with them built in. It is easy to install them for Windows 95/98/NT. There are a number of characters to choose from. Below are the setup instructions for MicroSoft® Agent. If you have any problems with these instructions, please visit the Microsoft Agent Home Page.

There are many Agent characters available and many more are being created. Now that you have Microsoft Agent installed on your computer, you only have to download additional Characters available and save them to your C:\WINDOWS\MSAGENT\CHARS or C:\WINNT\MSAGENT\CHARS folder, depending on your operating system. Below are the most common Microsoft® Agents made by Microsoft. In addition to the above characters, you should install these agents at a minimum. These are the most common characters used on sites that are MSagent enhanced.
More and more web sites are using MSagents
as a way to bring better communication and enjoyment to their site. I
suggest taking a look at the at my MS Agent Links
page for more Agent info.
