Shoutbox

I cant seem to have audio conversations. For some reason I can see when someone asks me, but not when I ask someone. And it just dosent work.

Could it be because of my firewall? I tried turning it off, but it didnt work...

Sugestions?

Do you get any error messages? What version of MSN are you running and are you running any additional patches or plug ins?

maybe some ports are blocked

try going to this thread, it talks about the different ports that need to be open for all your msn features to function. there is also a link to a program there, http://www.hopster.com/ , that can bypass ports that IM programs use

I could be wrong though, maybe somebody with more experience in these matters can help you out better

Edit: i just checked "app & port" i'll see if it works, when one of my buddies with mics come on...

Wait, if my buddy can't see the invite, but I can see his/her invite, does that mean that its a problem on thir side or on mine?
