And my problem is that i can't send custom sounds that I have made, and I can't receive custom sounds that other people send me, i get the message that the dowload has failed and if i click on try again it just fails again.

hammers,
Do you filter out "says"?
Have you tried with your firewall turned off?
Any plugins that might interfere (turn em all off then try again)?

I don't see anything wrong in the tracert.

I am using msg plus! with msn 7.5 btw and not msg plus! live, if that makes a difference. I haven't filtered out anything on purpose, i have tried with the firewall turned off and it didnt work still, and I havent downloaded or installed any plugins. Everything else works just when someone sends a sound to me it says that the download has failed and tells me to try again, I click on try again and it just fails again. I can still play the original sounds that come with the msg plus.

Any reason why it doesn't work that you can see?

??? Any idea???

This is really annoying that all of my friend's sounds work and mine dont

OK i have just installed windows messenger live and Messenger Plus live and it still doesnt work. Do you not have any idea of what could be the problem?

OK well thanks anyway mate, cheers for your help, I spose i will have to do without sounds then

Hey Guys, I've reinstalled Windows/MSN/MSGPlus i still got the custom sound files although there not in a pack. as i did not know it was possible to do that at the time. is there anyway of putting them back in? i've tried copy/paste from the old folder to the new one. but they do not load up. Any help appreciated.
Cheers,
The Phantom

Hmm, i don't think there's an easy way to do that at the moment... seeing as the Messenger Plus! Sound Library Fixer isn't updated for use with Plus!Live yet.

I think best way to go would be to go back to MSN 7.5, use the soundlibrary fixer if need be, then make a soundpack....If you have windows messenger you can reinstall Plus!3 then log into that and make a soundpack.

There is no need to uninstall Plus!Live btw (it won't hook to MSN Messenger)...but you will need to reinstall Plus!3

Backup your Plus!Live preferences before you do so....just in case
