    - Multiple emailsusage/email-key. I've got a hotmail account I'm using that consists of my full name and that's what I give to friends, but I also want to add people without the use of that email, so I think it would be great to allow either allow multiple emailadresses (to a single "messenger-window") or a "msn-hotmail-key". There can't be more than 99'999'999 messenger users so a homepage where you can put in your hotmailadress and get a key connected to it (small key), or just a decryption of your emailadress (hashing? anyway larger key). Don't let advertising get out of hand, otherwise great product! Tag: "xxxxx cannot be unblocked" Tag: 79419

    - Booting PC and Messenger not signing in Hello. When my XP PC boots, Messenger never automatically signs in, and I have to click the sign in once the PC has fully booted. Is there any way that I can delay Messenger so that it doesn't try to sign in before the PC has fully booted and all other services have been started? I'm not sure, but it looks as though Zone Alarm has not fully loaded, and this is stopping Messenger from signing in - Is this possible? Thanks. Tag: "xxxxx cannot be unblocked" Tag: 79418

    - 80048820 error again Guys, I know this error has been discussed a lot but I've got the same problema and I can't fix it. I've followed all the procedures mencionated here and it didn't work. I have Norton 2006 and I updated the MSN 7.5 when it ask me if I want to do so. After that I can't connect anymore. I've disabled the norton, also I changed its configuration option(program control) to allow all the action from MSN program, general rules and I desactivated de Windows messenger protector. When I try the MSN Messenger Connection Troubleshooter, the test results shows "Default gateway" - Your gateway appears to be offline. Basicly it was working fine before updating. I don't have norton CD instalation anymore and I don't want to uninstall it. What Should I do? Should I give up MSN Messenger and switch to Yahoo Messenger? Im using XP PRO SP 2, DSL connection. Hope u have a solution. Cheers. Tag: "xxxxx cannot be unblocked" Tag: 79410

    - distorted voice Hi, I have a 1.5M link. Running MSN Messenger I get good video and good and noiseless audio. However, the voice of the person on the other side is distorted. The pitch is high. Like a cartoon character, or a person who have inhaled Helium gas, if you know what I mean. His Mic is OK, since he speaks with others without the problem. My speakers are OK, since I can hear music without distortion. Any ideas ???? Tag: "xxxxx cannot be unblocked" Tag: 79399

    - HUGE bug in recent versions of MSN Messenger: Consumes 100% CPU on startup, hanging system. When you're on a wireless network connection, and that connection has not yet been created (or failed in some fashion), even if MSN Messenger is NOT set to sign in automatically, it stalls on startup (presumably in the initial Network connection code), and then proceeds to consume nearly 100% of the CPU. Could we get a fix for this please? Tag: "xxxxx cannot be unblocked" Tag: 79397

    - New MSN works for me, not my GF, SAME MACHINE OK, so the GF is mad at me since i uploaded the new messanger. It works fine for me but she gets the error message with her logon, tried to reset and now it says there the password has been tried to many times and locked. We are using the same machine so how can fixing the clock(which is the correct time and date) or cache or cookies do anything. She has had her Hotmail address alot longer than i have as well. ANY IDEAS Jonathan Kay? Tag: "xxxxx cannot be unblocked" Tag: 79392

    - MSN Messenger update I have MSN messenger 7.5, I use it a lot on multiple machines but it keeps telling me there is a new version. Being a skeptic that updates are always, good I click the button that implies it will tell me what is new, but all I get is basic web page advert for MSN messenger. I expect a differeence list between what I have and what I am getting. Since there is no list of anthing having changed I asume there is no reason for me to upgrade, so I don't.

    - video problem I posed this problem a week ago, but no-one appeared to know the answer, so I'll try one more time to see if there is an MS-MVP around. If not, I'll give up! I have MSN Messenger version 7.5 0311. Windows XP Pro. Creative webcam. I cannot initiate a video conversation in Messenger. If someone invites me, everything works fine. There is simply no video conversation option either as an icon or in the dropdown list for me to click on. Everything used to work OK until I downloaded the latest version. It is the same webcam that I have used for years. Other colleagues say that they have the icon & option. I have only "Start a voice conversation" or "Send my webcam". I see in this newsgroup that someone else has had this problem. I would be grateful for any advice. Geoff. Tag: "xxxxx cannot be unblocked" Tag: 79373

    - clumsy feature When trying to insert a certain icon while chatting with Messenger 7, I noticed that they seem to shift their positions each time. Now, I have a lot of icons so it takes quite a search to find the same bloody icon back! I'm very surprised about this "feature". Do programmers really beleive they make things easier this way? Or did they want to make a sort of a game out of it?? -- regards, |\ /| | \/ |@rk \../ \/os mccm dot vos at hccnet dot nl Tag: "xxxxx cannot be unblocked" Tag: 79336

    - chat window scrolling problems while Away I've noticed that I can't scroll up the chat window while the person I'm chatting with is "Away". Well, I can scroll up but it does not stay scrolled up. This seems counterintuitive; it would make oodles more sense if the chat window were biased to showing incoming text when my chat partner is "Available". But when he/she is "Away", why should I not be able to read earlier messages in the chat window without interference from that stupid bias? Has anyone else noticed this problem? Any suggestions, 'cos it's driving me outta my mind!!! Tag: "xxxxx cannot be unblocked" Tag: 79334

    - MSN Messenger Crashing IE While In Hotmail For the past few weeks now, when signed in to MSN Messenger and only when in Hotmail (using IE), IE crashes with the usual error message "...has to close." This only happens if: 1) signed in to MSN Messenger AND 2) in Hotmail. If not signed in to MSN Messenger, IE does not creash while in Hotmail. If signed in to MSN Messenger, no other webpages have had errors with IE. I have seen a few other people say they have the exact same problem. I've tried several recent versions of MSN Messenger 7.x I have performed a total sweep of my rig with: Spybot, Ad-aware, MS AntiSpy application, and Hijack-this. Please respond back if you have had this issue and have successfully resolved it. Please do not reply back with suggestions of "shooting in the dark." I have spent way too much effort on this issue, and I'm not prepared to put forth any further effort unless someone has a resolution. Thanks! Tag: "xxxxx cannot be unblocked" Tag: 79330

    - Can;t get webcam work I tried many times, but couldn't get webcam to work. After the other party accepted my invite, both mine and the other party's screen showed something like "loading..." and "waiting for contact..." for a while, and then it cancelled itself. I have 7.0 and the other 7.5. My guess is connection or firewall issue. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Tag: "xxxxx cannot be unblocked" Tag: 79327

    - automatic signing out Hi, Messenger keeps signing me out randomly. There is no obvious reason for this that I am aware of - my internet connection is fine. And then recently when I have tried to sign back in it has had issues with this - it usually doesn't want to sign in the first time I try and then it is ok the second time. I have already tried a few things such as reinstalling messeneger and doing something with the registry (i followed instructions from another forum) but it didn't solve my problem.

    - audio, but no video Hi Folks, I am trying to use the video conversation functionality of MSN Messenger 7.5. I can get through the A/V setup wizard just fine, and I can share my webcam or the microphone. When I choose to start a videoconversation though, the screen stays black and a red circle with a line through it is over the camera icon. The audio works on it though. I am using Windows XP SP 2 fully updated. I am connected using an LAN on a T1. Does the other person need to have a camera connected for this to work? Thanks!
