Shoutbox

since about 2 days ago 75% of the things i type continually come up as

"* The following message could not be delivered to all recipients:"

my connection is fine and am having no problems with it, it must be the program

The problem could be caused by a variety of things. Your local Messenger server may be experiencing problems, or the contact your sending the message to is having issues. I suggest checking your firewall and running the Messenger connection test. Otherwise you may just have to wait for the issue to be fixed .


(The connection test window)

connection test came up great, still having problems, been using this messanger for awhile so its not my firewall or anything

i guess ill give it a few days and see if it resolves itself

I'm getting this too last couple of days, and so did my friend today, so I guess it is not your connection problem.

You can get this message for a variety of reasons.  For example, if you send messages containing blocked extensions (*.pif) or even certain types of URL's (i've been able to get messages blocked simply by sending a link to a PHP page on Facebook).  Those are the most common reasons for the problems.

However, more recently I did have this problem happen to me for unexplained reasons for quite some time.  Signing in and out helped for about 3 minutes.  Are you doing any heavy downloading or uploading on your connection?  This can potentially cause the problem, although its unlikely.  You can check the .NET Messenger Service Status for by clicking here.  It should also be noted that the current release version of Windows Live Messenger is 8.1 and NOT 8.5.  If you are not using the release version, then you need to downgrade to it to ensure maximum useability.  This problem is not connected to Messenger Plus! Live.

I only upgrade via this site

not downloading or uplpading

and signing in and out does nothingg

Ive been using Windows Messanges as a temp replacement but its getting annoying

This site does not provide any Messenger downloads. There are, at most, just hyperlinks to the pages by Microsoft. Note that this site does contain a few links to the 8.5 beta, so .
