Cannot change Display Name
I'm running MSN Messenger 6 on Windows 98SE. I'm trying to
change some options - like My Display Name, but it won't
let me save the changes. As soon as I click OK, I get the
message "The number in the minutes box must be 1 or
greater. To turn off the activity detector, please clear
the check box." Problem is, all of the settings / check
boxes in the "My Status" section are greyed out, so I
can't change them.
I have tried uninstalling, downloading messenger again, re-
installing, but no luck.
Please help ! Tag: MSN Messenger Crashes Tag: 34911

Online/offline integration w Outlook Express not working after upgrade to MSN 6
In older versions of Messenger I could see who was online in Outlook
Express, I had my adress book in the left hand bottom corner and there it
would show the blue and red contacts. After the upgrade to MSN 6 this
functionality does not seem to work anymore. Is this still possible and if
so, what setting do I need to change?

WebCam - cannot see myself anymore
Hi,
I have a Logtech Pro 3000 which worked fine with MSN 6
when intially downloaded it about 2-3 months ago. Only
since yesterday, I found it bizarre during a video
conference session where the receiver could see me, but I
could no longer see myself as my screen was blank. About
every minute or so, there would be a quick flash of my
image which last for about half a second. My cam still
works fine with Netmeeting and Yahoo. I have not done any
major upgrades recently, nor have I installed any new
software so I'm not sure what could have caused this
problem. I even uninstalled MSN and then reinstalled it,
but this did not solve the problem either. "Web-Cam
settings" has always shown a blank-grey screen ever since
the beginning when I first used MSN 6, but I could still
see myself when I was in a video conference, so it didn't
bother me.
I'm using W98, video card is TNT2 M64 (Winfast 3D S325).
All responses appreciated. Please help. Tag: MSN Messenger Crashes Tag: 34869

MSN 6 really screwed up, virus?
Hi
The other day for no reason when i opened messenger, it
said that 5 people had added me to their contacts list,
and a runtime error popped up saying the runtime had to
close or something, in the program c\program files\msn
messenger\msnsgr.exe.
This kept happening even after a reinstall, so i
installed version 5 on my pc, and it works ok. However if
i go to options->security and look at my block list,
those 5 people that tried to add me i cannot delete from
the list!
I ran norton on my pc and adaware but didnt do anything!!
any ideas, its quite scary!

Cannot sign in
Ever since MSN Messenger 6.0 has come out, I have used it
with no problem at all. And earyler today I signed out to
do something else, then I went back to sign in and I got
this message: "We were unable to sign you in to the .NET
Messenger Service, possibly because of a problem with
your Internet connection. Please try again later"
Now my internet is working fine, normal speeds and all. I
did not update Messenger to my knowledge, and for sure
not my firewall, BUT I did a windows update, something
may have been in there. I didnt pay to much attention, I
was in a rush. Whatever I updated was put up in the past
3 weeks, since I last updated. My account works fine
Windows Messenger, but I realy dont like it. I tryed
restarting Messenger, and restarting my computer. Heck I
even re-installed it! Still the same old message! Please
help! Also should I try a system restore? Tag: MSN Messenger Crashes Tag: 34844

Messenger 6.0 One-Way audio problem
Hi:
I have Messenger 6.0 installed on Win98 behind of a LinkSys router. When
I tried to talk with my friend, the connection can be established easily,
but I can't hear what he is saying, he can hear me. We can use netmeeting to
connect with 2-way communication without any problem. So I think there is no
problem with my audio card and microphone. Seems to me there is some
problems with my router.
Anyone have any suggestion what I should check.
Thanks ahead !

Can't uninstall MSN Messenger 4.7
Hi,
I have Windows XP Pro. I have been attempting to install MSN Messenger 6.0,
but when I do, 4.7 remains installed and continues to run even while 6.0
does. I tried uninstalling 4.7 from the Add/Remove Programs applet (it's
the version that comes with XP), but it remains on the computer and
continues to run anyway. When I try to use Messenger, it displays an error
message and says that I have already signed in at another location. When I
try to shut 4.7 down from the system bar icon, it refused and displays a
message that some other program is using it. I have also tried to shut it
down from the windows task manager. It seems to shut down, but when I try
to connect using 6.0, it continues to to say that I am already signed in at
another location.
Any ideas what I can do to solve this delemma?
Thanks,

Message from microsoft....
Hello, I'm on linux using Gaim (latest version)
Every time I start using it as msn messenger and log in
then I get a security message from Microsoft itself! It says:
(00:17:10) messenger@microsoft.com: You are running a
version of messenger that requires an immediate security
update. Please visit
http://messenger.msn.com/Help/Upgrades.aspx to complete the
update.
When I, after checking that the url was indeed from msn,
went to that websit I can not get any information about gaim.
Is Microsoft spamming now? Or is my security in danger?
Or maybe both?

Hey msn messenger group! i love msn messenger and i just
wanted to comment:
i believe you guys should put custom away messages on msn,
like if some people have messages they wanna say you guys
should make the custom away message where people just fill
in what they wanna say:
"hey im doing homework right now"
"im at my friends house, be back around 3"
things like that, i think it would be REALLY useful,

nothing happens.

Windows Messenger 5? Why Not 6?
If there is one annoyance in Microsoft Messenger, it must be the infamous
REDUNDANCY!
Microsoft claims Windows Messenger targeted at business, and MSN Messenger
for consumers. But the question is, is this REALLY neccessary? The reality
now is most consumers like me are suffering from Messenger conflicts and
that annoying Outlook Express and Outlook dependancy on Windows Messenger.
I'd rather have Windows Messenger to have dual modes, where one mode for
business and another mode for consumers. It also reduces frustration and
eases upgrading. This is much better than having two separate products.
What I'm trying to honestly suggest is, please merge both products!
P.S. If that's really not possible (which I don't really think so), at least
make Windows Messenger 6 to synchronize, please! Tag: MSN Messenger Crashes Tag: 34772
SIP/SIMPLE Messenger protocol.
Hi Guys, How are you doing.
I am based in Delhi and work for a dev company. I have don't a few projects
on Virtual Conference Applications.
There are two things I wanna talk about here.
Firstly
----------
What I've heard is that MS with its new messenger is leaving its proprietary
protocol and going ahead with SIP/SIMPLE protocol.
As a matter of fact, I have even tried this Windows Messenger, setup TTCP to
listen on 5060 and connect through
Windows Messenger v4.7.2009 to connect on my server.
Here's the what TTCP dumped
Info :: [<--] points to the start of actual data received
=================================================
E:\>ttcp -r -s -p5060 -u
ttcp-r: local 0.0.0.0

Content-Length: 0
=================================================
I understand that this is using SIP protocol, RFC 3261 i.e.
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3261.txt
Now what I am confused with, is when I used MSN Messenger 6 to connect to
my local machine [I modified the hosts file to point messenger.hotmail.com
host to my local IP]
The connection request is still following the old protocol.
=================================================
E:\>ttcp -r -s -p1863
ttcp-r: local 172.17.24.96 <- remote 172.17.24.96
ttcp-r: buflen=8192, nbuf=2048, align=16384/+0, port=1863 tcp VER 2 MSNP9

ttcp-r: 34 bytes in 59999 real milliseconds = 0 KB/sec
ttcp-r: 4 I/O calls, msec/call = 14999, calls/sec = 0, bytes/call = 8
=================================================
Has anyone got any ideas, why is MS not following the SIP protocol for its
Messenger 6 version.
=================================================
Secondly
----------
I am part of the team who has been assigned the responsibility to choose the
protocol for our own Messenger Product.
Yes, our product will support Audio/Video and all other Multimiedia
applications.
I request anyone who have got their hands dirty inunderstanding Messenger
protocols and aplications and especially MVP's
to tell me is SIP/SIMPLE protocol better than the Jabber based XMPP
protocol.
Any comments/answers will be highly appreciated.
Also, if this is not the right newsgroup, can someone guide me to some
newsgroups when i could get some help.
Regards

Login problems
I recently installed MSN explorer on a windows XP machine.
I created a MSN account with an e-mail address and

at that time, to select Country / Region. Now when I log
in with my E-mail and password I am asked to select a
Country / Region from a drop down box. However this box is
empty and therefore I am not able to sign in. I ceated a
new account and also tried a Hotmail e-mail account and
still nothing. Tag: MSN Messenger Crashes Tag: 34743
MSN 6 has lost the "oleaut32.dll:313" file
For some unknown reason my MSN 6.0 Messenger fails to work
at all now, everytime i go to open it, an error message is
displayed saying, "The MSNMSGE.EXE file is linked to a

the system is not functioning". It seems that many
thousands of people are having the same problem as myself.
Also, i found out, if i remove MSN 6.0 from my computer,
then re-install it, after downloading it again, the same
problem still exists. One more thing, a similar problem to
this has occurred whilst trying to install Paint Shop
Pro.But what i would like information on, is how to fully
repair this problem with MSN 6.0? Tag: MSN Messenger Crashes Tag: 34731
