can you guys please help me??

Thanks in advance.

have you installed anythin recently?
or maybe it could be a problem with the WLM servers

Well,
my laptop is broke and i am currently using my dads laptop
so i dont know if he did install a weird program or something
i also dont know if there is a problem with the WLM servers

is there a way to fix it?

Try Noroom's List Manager. If the contacts are still in your allow list, i'll bring back all your contacts.

And yes this happens due to a server side error

i cant open the file
it is saying: Component 'MSWINSCK.OCX' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid.

why?

Ok,
i did that and i did run the Noroom's ListManager programm
but without succes
i cant see any of my contacts.

are there any other options?

use web messenger
http://www.webmessenger.msn.com/

Nope still empty
except 1 which did add me a few min ago

i also contacted hotmail but they didnt reply


does anybody know a solutions?

Well if it's empty on ALL of these different programs, it's either a server error, or your contacts have been removed (either by someone hacking into your account and deleting them, or a malicious program that was installed on one of the computers that you signed into your account from).

If your contacts have been removed, you can go through the people who have you added by going into Toole -> Options -> Privacy -> Click on the "View..." Button. You can then right click the people that have you on your list and add them individually. This is rather time consuming, but it's about all you can do...

Well i dont know if somebody hacked my account, but i dont think so because i just made a new password (yesterday).

If i go to Toole -> Options -> Privacy -> Click on the "View...", i dont see any contacts there.

so i dont know what happend.

is it maybe possible that hotmail made a back up of my contacts and that i can ask them if they can send me the back up?
or is it an error @ the site?

Well, if you can't see anything on that list either then chances are it's a server error

And they won't reply to your email within two hours, they take a while to answer emails

Ok,
is it maybe possible that i can get a contact list from hotmail?
or how long will it take till the problem is solved, because i still didnt get a mail from hotmail.

The contacts are still not back
what do i have to do?

do you guys know an email of hotmail for requesting contact list back up?
or is there something else i can do?

Well - i know that if you Synchronise your contacts using the Address Book in Outlook Express on an account that is Hotmail, it will wipe your contact list (sometimes not completely)

The only way around this is to have a backup of your contact list (Contacts >> Save Instant Messaging Contacts...)

actually this happens to my friend, he uses MSN 7.0, and when he comes to mine he has like 1/15th of the amount of contacts of what he originally had.

it seems that it onlys happens on WLM
