Live Messenger not working by JakeWild on 11-06-2007 at 01:48 PM

Hey
Whenever I try to sign into Live Messenger I get the following message:



We are unable to sign you onto Windows Live Messenger at this time. Please try again later.

Windows Live Messenger has made several failed attempts to sign you in. Your firewall may be blocking Windows Live Messenger from connecting to the service. Please review your firewall settings. See the retailers instructions for more information.

Error code: 80072efd



I've changed my firewall settings so that it allows Live Messenger through and I've also disabled firewall altogether but neither seem to work..

Hopefully someone will be able to help!
Oh and I'm using Vista btw..

Thanks in advance :)

Can you sign in with a webmessenger? (http://webmessenger.msn.com/)

Yep

Might still be your firewall then :s

Another thing you can try is to restart your router.
