    - Messenger (and IE) freezes - only on my userprofile Greetings I need some assistance - hope you can help me. I'm running XP with SP1 and various updates (not SP2) with two user profiles (one for myself and one for my girlfriend). Here's the problem: Whenever I open Messenger in my profile the program freezes after approx. 15-20 seconds and has to be shut down. The same thing happens with Internet Explorer which also stops responding (We both use Firefox for internet surfing - which works fine on both profiles). The strange thing is, that whenever I use my girlfriend's profile there's no problem with Messenger og IE whatsoever?!? Anyone have any ideas? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks Mikael Wolf Tag: Msn messenger instant messages do not work Tag: 59809

    - Using @msn.com email to connect to MSN Messenger. Is this possible? It keeps telling me I need to log into MSN Explorer, but I don't use that, I just use a regular dial-up networking connection. Do I *have* to do this just to use an @msn.com email address in messenger or is there a way around it? Tag: Msn messenger instant messages do not work Tag: 59806

    - Contact list full... but its not! Hey, just found this forum and I'm hoping you guys can help me out... I was using MSN 6.something, and all of a sudden it wouldnt let me add any more peole to my list because it said the list is full. Fair enough, so I delete a whole bunch of people who I never talk to... but then I try to add a contact it still says my list is full! So I figured I'd upgrade to MSN 7 to see if that helps, same deal! Any Ideas? I already signed off and on again, and took as many people out of the "allow" list under the privacy options as I can (I dont know why it dont let me delete some people from that list?) I'm under 100 contacts on my list now and its still saying the list is full when i try to add anybody! Tag: Msn messenger instant messages do not work Tag: 59777

    - Has ANYONE EVER Had a Audio Chat with Messenger 6.2??? If so, I find it VERY hard to believe.... I've tried multiple Windows XP SP2 computers and multiple configurations - from behind uPnP routers, without routers, with software firewalls on and off - and NEVER ONCE have I or the people I have tried to chat with heard a peep. Yet, never a problem with Yahoo Messenger or Skype. (Skype will go through anything...) Just disgusted at how much time I've wasted on this.... In addition, the webcam stuff seems to work, but the more important video conferencing doesn't. Sheesh..... Tag: Msn messenger instant messages do not work Tag: 59732

    - Error with MSN Messenger PLZ Help !! I tryed installing a beta version of MSN Messenger 7.0 but it did not work, whenever I signed in it would automatically close. So I restarted my computer to see if it would help and it didn't. I went to Add/Remove Programs and removed MSN Messenger 7.0 and tried to use MSN Messenger 6.2. I was now given a message saying "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem". So I uninstalled it and tryed to reinstall it but halfway through the installation it told me I was missing a file called "MsnMsg.Msi" which I can find nowhere. I have tryed everything and it still isn't working and it is irritating the hell out of me, Any help would be greatfully appreciated. Tag: Msn messenger instant messages do not work Tag: 59696
