WLM by default signs in awfully slow compared to MSN Messenger. I know it because here at work right now we only got a 200kbit connection for 7 computers... signing in for someone with a 50+ people contact list takes between 30 seconds and 2 minutes. Someone with a 300+ people contacts list needs about 4-6 minutes to sign in. I assume WLM also loads all contact information during the sign in process, not afterwards. In my opinion, that's crappy programming, but tell the people at Microsoft.
So in other words... Plus! probably doesn't have to do with it, might be just a slow connection to the Microsoft servers in that moment.

Wow, and the Messenger site says it signs in a lot faster.

I think it loads right at the end. When I sign in in my other extemely slow computer, my fast computer pops a toast, but is still loading.

Plus! may have something to do with it as it has to load all its features.

... I highly doubt it...Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but WLM is supposed to sign on faster, because it doesn't have to retrieve all your contacts every time... your list is temporarily saved onto the computer you're on and it will load it from there instead of the servers. All you need is to be connected and then your contacts will show their status as soon as that happens.
RE: slow sign in by fish-luke on 07-17-2006 at 04:12 PM
yeah, weird. my mate told me that it ill stop after a day for two, but no?!?!
well i just got the new plus! live and that hasn't made any difference...
one of my friends suggested singing in at hotmail.com and that wud sign it in quicker, but im not too sure

Yes, it is supposed to do all of it, but its not speeding up from 7.5, if not slower.
EDIT: fish-luke, pls edit your posts above me and make them as 1. Double posting is BAD.
