O.P. Huh?  Live Messenger Freezes for a few minutes then comes back.
Hey guys.

I'm using Windows Live messenger (well trying to!).

Once I've managed to Sign in, I have to wait a few minutes for it "coming round" again before I can chat.

Once I'm in conversations, it just all of a sudden freezes up on me - and I have no idea why! I have to wait a few minutes for it to come back - and usually it does.

Quite annoying!

I'm on broadband, with a Linksys router. There are two computers connected via wires, and one laptop on wifi.  They're all using Windows XP Professional.

I have also tried disabling the firewall software that comes with Windows; still no joy :(

I emailed MSN, and they said it was the router - well, that's crap. I've tried directly connecting one computer to the cable modem, and the problem still exists. I've also tried removing the software entirely (clearing the folders, deleting the registry), and that still hasn't resolved it.

Anyone got any ideas?
