    - Jonathan - can you help me please? Sorry if this has been posted already. Consistently over the last week (almost 80% of the time) when I try to play a game with a friend, either she or I get games are not available. We'll try several times before we finally get a connection, but most times we just give up. In the past, our failure rate was reversed - only about 20% of the time we couldn't start a game. This happens at all times of the day. Is there something I can do? We're both on 4mbps internet connections with 2+ ghz computers. We are on the latest version of MSN Messenger. This is a new problem and we haven't changed or added anything to our computers that would cause this problem locally. Thank you for your help. Tag: Multiple languages installed Tag: 77110

    - Compatibility Problem with new Messenger I tried to download and install the newest MSN Messenger. I opted for the "system check" to make sure my OS is compatible. After the scan completes, I get a message saying "...MSN Explorer detected!" The explanation states that the new messenger doesn't work well with MSN Explorer.

    - 100 GMail invitations to go!!!!! NOW Hello Everyone My offer for a GMail invitation will be on a first come, first served basis. Just email me and I will send your invitation through the automated process at Google. I DO NOT SPAM. When I do send you the invitation, be sure, especially if you are using hotmail, to check your junk mail folder. In Microsoft's infinite wisdom and jealousy towards their competitor, their system will consider the security verification code in the subject line of the invitation to be spam. If there happens to be a person who is using a Yahoo account and would like an invitation, Yahoo is less likely to filter out the invitation however, check your bulk folder just in case. PLEASE REMEMBER, IF USING HOTMAIL WITH YOUR JUNK MAIL FILTER SET TO EXCLUSIVE, ONLY ALLOWING PEOPLE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST TO GET THROUGH, YOU WILL NOT SEE THE GMAIL INVITATION. DON'T COME CRYING TO ME IF THAT HAPPENS. To the wonderful spammers out there, don't bother spamming me as it will only help teach the GMail spam filters how to be more effective in filtering crap out. They are already very good at what they do. I will show my email address 3 times in this message for those people who are viewing this in the Google Groups beta edition which automatically obscures email addresses. Hopefully I can get past that so everyone can see my email address to send their requrest. Tag: Multiple languages installed Tag: 77039

    - upgrade from 6.2 to 7.5, using video forces re-boot Greetings, just upgraded to 7.5 from 6.2 (I think it was 6.2, definitely 6.x), and using video conference causes the remote end to hang, forcing a hard reset. OS version is XP SP2, not known if all updates are applied but I don't think they are. My end is fine. We had been using 6.2 for 5 or 6 months with reasonable success. Audio only worked fine, as soon as video is added it can take upto 5 minutes (but has happened at different intervals) before the remote end hangs. The remote end is in Europe, connection is 128Kb up and 256Kb down, no router. My end is in Can 800Kb up and 3000Kb down (on a good day), Dlink wireless router. The person at the other end is not really that computer savy but is able to get by. I guess my question(s) are any guess as to what to check? Are there updates that are required for this to work? This will have to be done via remote assistance, email, or phone. I have checked the web site for his web cam and have downloaded a "potential" driver update that I will send him. Camera is a SWEEX 300K. Thanks for any response. Tag: Multiple languages installed Tag: 77022

    - Security Problems With File Transfers (v7.0) I started receiving file transfers from friends, but when I attempted to open them from the window, Windows automatically deleted them for security reasons. I've found that I have to go the long route by opening up the folder I save the files to and changing the filename. This is quite irksome and has resulted in the loss of a few files that took quite a while to download. Is there any way at all to keep this from happening?

    - MSN Messenger 7.5 Recently added a new 80G hard drive and loaded XP Professional SP2. Now Messenger takes consistently 120 seconds from the time the icon appears in the tray to the time it signs in. Another computer with messenger 7.5 on the home LAN continues to work fine. Also I find access to the MSN.ca home page and hotmail sometimes very slow. I am using Rogers Cable Extreme 5000/800. Anyone else experienced this? it's really trying my patience. Have uninstalled Norton Antivirus 2005 to see if that was the problem, but something is happening for 2 minutes that is holding up signing on. hanks -- JPM Tag: Multiple languages installed Tag: 77000

    - Messenger 7.0 & 7.5 Tiny Window Lockup In MSN Messenger 7.0 and 7.5, when I open up a conversation window (or someone sends me a message, opening up the window for me), it shows up as incredibly narrow, just wide enough to accomodate the display pictures, with no place for the conversation window or the typing area and buttons.

    - Messenger 7.0 - WebCam Issue Two persons, both running MSN Messenger 7.0 I have a webcam. I have used it successfully before with another person. My contact does not have a webcam. I have set it up using the menu [tools > webcam settings] where I get a window with a live picture in good condition. I then open a chat window with the other user. I click on WebCam > send my webcam no audio as the other person does not have a webcam. The other person doesn't ever receive an invite, so they cannot accept. Then, if they choose to select [actions > audio/video > more > view my contact's webcam no audio] Then I receive an invitation, and I accept it. Then my contact tells me they get a "webcam loading" message and it times out Can anyone help to diagnose this issue? As I said I have used this successfully with other people, same set up.

    - Connection problem, but not like the others! Hi all! Having suffered big time since v7.1 or something, I now surrender and call for help! ;) My problem is this: MSN Connects - No problem. I can see that the MSN Icon in the task bar changes from Offline (with the red cross on it) into Online mode. The MSN Window itself says "Connecting..." or "Reconnecting...", but nothing happens! I can see on my girlfriend's laptop that I'm actually signing in, but my contacts never load. The MSN Window itself is stuck. If I try to force MSN Messenger to shut down, I might as well just reset my computer, because then everything will crash. No programs will open etc. etc. This is not the only thing that happens: MSN Messenger disconnects my wireless Internet connecting while trying to connect! It simply turns it off until it eventually reconnects, but MSN still won't load my contacts! I can manually fix this problem by "Repairing" my Wireless connection between 8-25 times before I'm actually able to sign in and load the contacts properly! I'm now running version 7.5 hoping that it might have solved the problem, but no go! Using the repair feature in MSN Messenger does not change a thing either. I don't have any firewalls (other than the Windows firewall in XP SP2). Does anyone know what might cause this problem? Thanks in advance, Thomas Tag: Multiple languages installed Tag: 76980

    - Messenger automatically closing I have XP SP2, and I'm trying to install messenger on this, my desktop. I have it on my laptop (also XP SP2) so I'm pretty familiar with how it *should* work, but after I've installed it on this comp, it starts to run for--oh, 5, 10 seconds, then automatically closes itself. When I go to open MSN again, it says that it can't find msnmsgr.exe, and when I open up the Messenger folder, the .exe file is gone. It's as though it has deleted itself. The kicker is, my brother has MSN under his windows user account on this same computer, and it works fine for him. And yes, I do have full admin privileges on the computer. Has anybody else had a similar problem? Or any suggestions? I've been trying to get MSN on here since like 6.0 came out, and it's done this since I first tried putting it on. . . weird.

I maintain a lab environment. Right now, when users come in and want to use
MSN Messenger in a language other than English, we let them install it, but
it then overwrites the English version. Is there anyway to have multiple
language support installed for MSN messenger on a computer?

Thank you!

Greetings,

What you can do is install each language version and move it to its own folder (they'll
install in \MSN Messenger by default, just move it and install the next one) and then make a
shortcut for each.
