    - Delay on messenger when sending message I am unable to figure out why my messenger has about a five or ten second delay after i type my message. It is so frustrating and i wonder if anyone can help. I can't uninstall my msn 6 version because it says the file is being used on another network. I am getting desperate. I emailed the support center 5 times and they do not respond. Tag: signing into messenger Tag: 59798

    - HoTMaiL just doesnt work anymore... Over the past two day on two separate computers, HoTMaiL has stopped working. I can view my in box and see new messages, but when I click on them, they won't display. The same thing for trying to make a new message, I click on 'new message' and nothing happens. I do get an 'error on page' message at the bottom left hand side of the browser window in both cases, but that's it. Haven't changed any setting lately... Any suggestions?

    - 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: signing into messenger 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: signing into messenger Tag: 59732

    - Hotmail and MSN Messenger problems I know I'm properly connected to the internet and there aren't any problems there however everytime I try to log in to my hotmail account an error page shows up saying this page cannot be displayed.

    - 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: signing into messenger Tag: 59696

    - Passport Verification emails not appearing We have just completed converting all our users to using our new email address. This involved switching their msn messenger accounts over as well. 90% of these are fine but several people I never get the email verification email for. I keep requesting it and it never appears. I have cleared the address with our ISP to avoid their spam blocker. I have checked everyone of the accounts to make sure the correct email address was used which it is. And I have verified that all the email accounts themselves are working. Out of our 60 users it's about 15 or so that can't get verification emails - not too many but enough to make indivdually emailing support a pain if there is another solution.

Greetings Donna,

Does it just go back to the main Messenger "Sign In" screen? If so, click Start, then Run,
then type:
%appdata%\microsoft
and click OK.

Right-click the MSN Messenger folder and choose Delete. After all this, restart Messenger
and see if the problem has been corrected.
