    - That Worked Great My sister and I are both on Win XP pro, Linsys Router BEFSR41, Intel NIC card (both of ours were enabled) we disabled them. After figuring out that she did not have the most current update for the linksys, she installed that and now we work PERFECTLY. We tried disabling the QoS Packet, and that seemed to make no difference either way. I also work great with my son overseas who is on XP home, but he is not on a router, and no firewall. My other son on dial up doesn't seem to be working yet. I get his video but not audio yet, he gets my video and audio. Still working on that one. Tag: Messenger 6.0 Launch Site Problem Tag: 26759

    - - The most embarassing question ever asked, anywhere... Okay, this is without a doubt the most embarassing question I've ever asked. And that says a lot. My MSN Messenger has been auto-logging into the service for a year... ditto with the hotmail email check. I never have to enter my password. Now I need to log in from another computer and can't remember my password. Keeping in mind that my original computer obviously knows it and has a cookie auto-logging me in... where can I retrieve this password? None of the hints are helping me. :( I need to uncover the actual password stored somewhere on my own computer. Thanks. Tag: Messenger 6.0 Launch Site Problem Tag: 26757

    - Messenger and firewalls... I have been using Messenger on my computer at work, and it has generally worked fine up until yesterday... now it keeps giving me a "Signing in failed because you do not have the correct UserID and password for your network's HTTP proxy server" message. I have checked both IE's browser Internet Options and Messenger's own options, and all looks fine there... any clue as to what this problem is and how to fix it?

    - Deploying MSN 6 Seems like MSN 6 is not for the business enviorment however we like MSN 6 due to all the features. Is there a way to deploy MSN 6 over a corporate network? ALso We use MSN 6 and create .NET accounts which takes the hugh load off of us from buying a server, costs, maintiance etc buy haiving a messenging server from Exchange. We also get to reserve our own accounts in our domain name. Is there a way to script the configeration of MSN 6? Example would be to save the messenger logs to a network drive, disable the ability for a user to disconnect MSN 6, and to script the user accounts in MSN 6. Let me know.

    - Business users Is MSN Messenger 6.0 designed to *not* be installed on business computers? It seems to demand that all other versions of Messenger--including Windows Messenger--be uninstalled first. Thankfully, the installer warns that MSN Messenger does *not* include support for Exchange Instant Messaging and the Communications Service. So it seems that many business users will be unable to install MSN Messenger 6.0. Is MSN Messenger's .NET Messaging interface compatible with Windows Messenger 4/5? IOW, will home users running MSN Messenger still be able to communicate with office workers running the Windows Messenger 4/5? Tag: Messenger 6.0 Launch Site Problem Tag: 26700

    - MSN6, options in XP not in 2000 Someone told me about unclick a box and 'putting me in busy and full screen apps' blah blah for audible beep. On windows 2000 with MSN 6 that option is 'not' available, at home on my XP it is available and "no" it doesn't beep when I am in game and I get messaged. Just wanted to make sure you know that. It's irritating because I have people messaging me while I am in game and I don't hear a beep. Can this be fixed plz! Tag: Messenger 6.0 Launch Site Problem Tag: 26696

I don't have any other trouble with accessing Web sites, but when I try to log onto MSN I get a message that says: ******** "Sorry, we could not sign you in because the sign-in name you entered does not exist or your password is incorrect." ******** I know the sign-in name is from a valid Passport account because I have used it in the past with no trouble. I also have not changed my password nor have I forgotten it. Also, others have tried to log on to MSN with my new installation and they can't get on either.

    - Display Picture & Background problem I have a problem with the display pictures and backgrounds in Messenger 6.0. It seems that whenever I sign out or close Messenger, the "default" background changes back to the MSN Default background, even though I selected "Set as Default". The same happens to my display picture - when I sign out, it changes to a random picture instead of the one I had previously chosen. Is there a way to make the backgrounds and display pictures stay as you had chosen them, even when you sign out or exit Messenger? Tag: Messenger 6.0 Launch Site Problem Tag: 26622

    - Intel NIC One Way Audio with MSN 6 - workaround For people having issues with one way audio on their Intel NIC cards with MSN Messenger 6, I believe we have a workaround. It appears the issue is being caused by the Intel driver's implementation of 802.1p, which is enabled by default in these drivers. To disable this, go to the properties for your network card, click the Configure button in the General page, click the Advanced tab, Select 802.1p support, and set the value to disabled. Let me know if this helps or not. Also let me know if the value was already set to disabled. We'll work with Intel to get them to fix their driver in the meantime. -- John Holmes Developer, MSN Messenger This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

    - IM 4.6.0084 (For Exchange2000); Can not import or save contact lists We are deploying the IM for internal purposes, and for a strange reason SOME user are not getting any menu/windows/selection AFTER clicking on either of the options related to the Contacts Lists. There does not "seem" to be a common configuration trouble, since this challenge happen on different Windows 2000 workstation and servers, and Windows XP with SP1. The client installed is the latest available from MS site. Since we have a lot of user to add to contacts lists, we have create (from one of those that works) a copy of the list so we could import instead of adding one by one. I searched the TechNet and "googled", but cannot find any similar behaviors reported... Any one as an idea what could cause this? Thanks for any information/pointer and help.

    - Difficulty with 6.0 I just updated messenger to the 6.0 version and it doesn't seem to like working with the Norton 2001. The previous 5. whatever it was worked fine, but this new one won't work! I keep getting the "check that you are logged onto the internet and could be the service" message. Not sure what the files are that I have to unblock etc in the firewall to get it to work. I know it's a firewall problem because if I disable it, the messenger works. If anyone has some idea's, that would be great, otherwise I can't be bothered with this new one, and I'll reinstall the older version.

I've got a problem with the Messenger 6.0 Launch Site.
Below the Activities menu, the only option/game available
is the "Tic-Tac-Toe". I've tried re-installing several
times, but still the tic-tac-toe is the only one. Someone
knows what can I do to put the other games and options?
