Hi Folks,
I am trying to sign up users for Windows Live Messenger here in my office to
ease communications with our telecommuters since working from home is easier
in the day we live in now. Anyway, after filling out the signup form and
typing in the security code ensuring I am a real user and click Next, I get
this error screen:
We are working to fix a temporary problem with our sign-up service.
Please try again.
Error code:100:(0x800482d4::)::Tue, 17 Jun 2008 13:29:40 UTC
Can anyone tell me how to allow all my users to get by this and get Live
accounts? Thanks!

Are you trying to create the user ID at http://account.live.com ? If so, and the
error persists, you might want to try clearing cookies and temporary Internet
files and making sure that your connection settings in the browser are not set
to auto-detect under the LAN settings. Failing all of that, contact LiveID

Well this occurred on all the machines in the network which I tried it on
including this one. I however just tried here at home to sign up the same
user and successfully signed her up. I have to do this more times though so I
think I will go ahead and contact. Thanks though Steve!

Perhaps there's a proxy/firewall issue at the business location?

I believe the problem has something to do with a IP address restriction. I
work in a call center and we use MSN Messenger internally. We have a pretty
frequent turn around for the agents on the floor so I tend to create 3-8
accounts a week sometimes. I started seeing this error a couple of months
ago. I just got one today after signing up 3 accounts. It usually clears up
in a couple of days. I just think they put a limit on the amount of ID's you
can create. Im pretty sure the restriction is done by IP address which is
why you were orginally able to create a couple accounts from home.
