There was one other person on IRC earlier reporting problems.

[15:26] <erm> Erm yeah hey, is there a problem with the MSN severs cuz everytime i try to send a custom emotion sound it says something about security settings and that the server wont accept it? thanks
[15:27] <+MeEtc> can you copy the entire error here please?
[15:27] <erm> "An error occured while contacting the server, please try again later. If the problem persists, check your security settings."
[15:28] <+MeEtc> seems OK here
[15:29] <erm> Argh, its happening to everyone I ask. What version of WLM and MSGPlus do you have? Also where are you from?
[15:30] <+MeEtc> WLM 8.5, msgplus 4.70, canada
[15:31] <erm> hmm thats exactly what i'm using, except i'm from the UK...I thought it mighta been a problem with where you were from, but surely it wouldn't make a difference.
[15:31] <+MeEtc> i'm asking one of my UK contacts to try
[15:32] <erm> Ok, thanks
[15:34] <+MeEtc> erm: i just had a problem receiving one sound myself, but on second attempt it was ok
[15:34] <erm> Wow....So you honestly don't have any idea why that is happening?
[15:34] <+MeEtc> nope, sorry
[15:35] <erm> Ah ok, thankyou anyway.
[15:35] <+MeEtc> has it worked in the past for you?
[15:36] <erm> Yeah it has worked all the time in the past. It's just over the recent week it's just started acting up.
[15:36] <+MeEtc> hmm, nope
[15:37] <+MeEtc> havent heard any other reports of problems either
[15:46] <erm> I also logged into my computer to see if it worked there, and it didnt work there either [i'm on my laptop usually]
[15:47] <erm> OOH wait i just got a different error
[15:48] <erm> "The Custom Emotion Sounds feature is currently disabled. The server may be under maintenance, please try again later."
[15:48] <+MeEtc> sounds pretty descriptive to me
[15:49] <erm> Hmm, well if its disabled for me, but it works for me....then thats very strange.
[15:53] <erm> see look; this is the thread that made me think that there was something wrong with the server; http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=40787
