O.P. RE: Problems with MSN? News from the source!
I am not actually at work, I am just logging into my "tools" from home... we have this website called "Support Web" that I am able to log into from home... and that is where I am checking for information. If I were able to talk to someone from work I would tell you exactly what is going on... but my computer won't even sign INTO msn - so I am assuming the problem is not fixed.
As for the messenger 7 - I know that they are trying to get everyone to downgrade because of some security flaws in messenger 7.
