    - Different sort of sound problem My problems with the sounds is that I try to turn off the sound when others connect. I've done it by going to Tools - Options - General - Sounds and select the wave-file to <none>. And for a while it stays off, but soon enough it's been turned on again. This happens both at work on W2k and at home on WinXP, and it's really annoying. Is there any way to permanently kill that sound without removing the wave that it plays (or making it silent)?

    - Messenger & iBOT Firewire Compatibility Just wanted to know if Orange Micro's iBOT Firewire webcam works with MSN Messenger. So for those of you who know, I'd very much appreciate your feedback on this. And for those of you who actually have one of these cams, how is the quality? How does it compare to Logitech's QuickCam Pro 4000 in terms of quality... i.e. color accuracy, lighting conditions, framerates, etc.? thanks, veloman Tag: hotmail problems Tag: 43920

    - can sign in on host but not client computers We got direcway a few months ago and msn messenger was working fine then we had some problems with the direcway. After getting those problems cleared up I can no longer sign in to msn messenger on the client computers. The host works fine but not the clints. Direcway says it is out of their expertise. (No Kidding) I have had a couple people tell me that it has to do with the IP addresses and the gateway address. But I don't know what they should be. Could anyone help with this problem. I can use the host but it is my 9 year old sons computer and he does school on it when I want to use msn. Please help Susan Tag: hotmail problems Tag: 43898

    - status lost In MSN Messenger 6 I noticed that when the connection (ADSL) is interrupted, my status setting is not retained. So when I have set it to "away", and I come back, this setting is lost and people have been trying to reach me in vain. I think this (bug) can be solved by resetting the status to the previous one before the interruption. -- regards, |\ /| | \/ |@rk \../ \/os Tag: hotmail problems Tag: 43881

    - 0x80004005 MSN :-((((( greetings! we all, obviously, have almost the same problem, but noone is offering any solution! since the 10th february i can't sign in on MSN from any pc. i use the newest version, with nothing new installed in meantime. everytime i try to sign in, i get the error message 0x80004005. nothing new in this newsgroup, i think. i have, however, no problems signing in over web (the same account, .net passport and hotmail). so, someone should give us here a constructive solution or at least, explanation to this problem! i don't think that Mr. Johnatan Kay has an easy job here, but his solutions were of no help so far! so if microsoft's staff has only titels but no knowledge, then we don't have to wonder why is microsoft software not working properly! best regards to all! -- Sanja Tag: hotmail problems Tag: 43861

    - Messenger voice through a firewall Problem: I have an international remote user who wants to speak to a local user without using a normal telephone so as to avoid paying for international phone calls. The remote user is on WinXP and a dial-up line with a software firewall (Norton). The local user is on WinNT4 with a DSL line and a hardware firewall (Watchguard SOHO box). I am not a numpty! I understand WinNT, WinXP, ports, firewalls etc etc, but I'm not familiar with Messenger or Netmeeting. I have searched high and low on Microsoft support and Knowledgebase and have been unable to find simple information about what ports the different versions of Messenger and Metmeeting use. All I can find is Microsoft's baby-talk tech support information. No hard info. regarding port usage. Can anyone tell me where Microsoft publish information regarding the port usage for the various versions of MSN Messenger, Windows messenger and Netmeeting? I don't need patronising rubblish about "click this button and type in this number etc". I just want the port usage. Also, I've seen a post here saying that some port usage changed from MSN messenger 5 to 6. Does that mean some features are not backward compatible? Thanks in advance, Nigel Tag: hotmail problems Tag: 43856

    - MSN Messenger behind firewalls I work for an organization that has about ten people at one location using a Novell network and another ten people scattered at other location, mostly universities. We frequently connect by teleconference, but sometimes it would be nice to have some video communication. I have looked into NetMeeting, but it seems to have problems working through the multiple firewalls that we have. Does anyone have any experience using MSN Messenger in a similar situation, i.e., Novell BorderManager firewall on one end and unknown (maybe Linksys) firewall on the other? Thanks for any help.

    - different kind of UPnP problem A puzzler for the experts perhaps. I have a home network with half a dozen XP clients (all SP1 with critical updates). These are arranged in an Active Directory Domain environment. I have a Netgear VPN endpoint firewall/NAT but one that is UPnP capable and enabled. There are Windows 2003 server-based DNS and DHCP services on the network so I don't use the DNS/DHCP in the router. Exacly one of the client machines on the network can successfully make two-way voice/video conference hook ups with systems outside the local network. All other systems are unable: symptoms are video hookup in both directions but no audio is received at the remote end from my machines. I have tried explicitly deleting entries in the "internet connection" properties; doesn't help. I've tried installing the UPnP components that aren't installed by default with XP (although the working system doesn't have those it seems). I've tried disabling the QoS scheduler (although it's not disabled on the working client). Since I have one machine that works perfectly, I conclude that the issue must be with the client system setup somehow rather than the firewall/UPnP per se. What could I possibly have set differently on the one "golden" system that seems to work just fine? The one system that works was at the point of needing retirement some time ago...I've nursed it just for this one ability but it may fail finally anytime. I could really use help to get one or all of the other systems working. Any suggestions for me, please? I'm sort of at a loss :- ( Thanks in advance. Cheers, Mark. Tag: hotmail problems Tag: 43831

    - Questions about alerts I am new to MSN Messenger and have a couple of questions about alerts. I have set up various alerts on MSN Messenger. No problems with this. To reduce screen clutter, I close the messenger window (but remain signed-in). The questions: 1. An alert shows up as a popup. It stays for a few seconds and then disapears. If I was not looking at the screen when it popped up, I would never know an alert has arrived. So, is there a way to keep the alert on screen until I dismiss it? 2. I see that alerts keep accumulating in the Alerts tab. Are they cleared automatically? If so, how does it work? Or do I have to do it manually? If so, how do I do that? Thank you.

    - I get this message during discussions "The following message could not be delivered to all recipients" Dear all, This error message only started when I updated to version 6.1. In the middle of a discussion to a single or group, Messenger simply doesn't deliver the message. I then must retype the entire message, which soon becomes very frustrating. Thinking that there may be a conflict of the versions, I have looked to see if I can uninstall the old version. However, I don't know if this is a problem, and cannot find out how to do this either. Has anyone else experienced this problem, and if so how was it corrected? Tag: hotmail problems Tag: 43818

I doubloe click the icon in the Start button and nothing. I open task manager and its not there. I try to start it with Task Manager open, and it shows up for about a second and disappears. I have uninstalled it, cleand out the registry entries, deleted the folders and reinstalled (several times) and the same thing keeps hapening. On the other hand, Windows messenger still works fine.

    - Sign-In Problem (0x80004005 Error) This is driving me crazy. For the past week I keep getting the 0x80004005 error when I try to sign into MSN Messenger. I doesn't matter what PC I try to use I still get the same message. I created a new account and logged in successfully. I believe that there is a problem with my account on the Microsoft side however I keep getting generic responses from MSN tech support. I found a forum on another site that addressed this issue. Apparently there was a guy who worked at Microsoft who verified that this problem was on Microsoft's side and he actually was able to fix a couple of accounts of people who e-mailed him. Unfortunately he shut down his e-mail after getting flooded with requests. Does anyone know if Microsoft is looking into this problem? I'd like to be able to access my previous account so I can get all the contacts that were stored there. Tag: hotmail problems Tag: 43812
