WHY, when i tell it to log chats, it doesn't! and when it does, my password is NOT what i set it to be! i can't even read the damn logs! and i hate using msn's xml logs, they're horrible, too hard to read, and you can can't copy/paste them effectively. PLEASE help me with this!

Err... more details please?

It should work, it does for 10 million people at least...

OK, i thought it was working but i guess i was wrong. i started fresh, changed my password, no files. then, not two days later, there are TWO different logs...x@somewhere.com and x@somewhere.com1 .. and no, it isn't because one was too big, each are only 5/6 KB! anything that has a 1 after it works, anything that doesn't it tells me my password is incorrect, and i've tried every password i've ever used

What kind of MSN and PLUS! do U use?

how?

upgrade? http://www.msgplus.net/

are you logging with msn or messenger plus? cuz the one that comes with msn is crap the one with messenger plus is a lot better cuz its in a readme file.

plus version 2.54.74
messenger 6.1.0211
loggin w/plus

Are you sure you didn't changed the password, or you left a logfile from before your fresh install, because you get two different logs when you change your password.

When you choose not to re-encrypt your old logs while changing the password:
- user@isp.tld1.ple will be the one with the old password.
- user@isp.tld.ple will be the one with the new password.

When you change you password again and still choose not to re-encrypt your current log:
- user@isp.tld2.ple will be the one with the 1st password.
- user@isp.tld1.ple will be the one with the 2nd password.
- user@isp.tld.ple will be the one with the 3rd password.

Now when you change your password again an do choose to re-encrypt your logs this time:
- user@isp.tld2.ple will be the one with the 1st password.
- user@isp.tld1.ple will be the one with the 2nd password.
- user@isp.tld.ple will be the one with the 4th password.
As you see not everything will be re-encrypted / get the new password then. It's something to keep in mind when changing your password.

I'm not saying this is what you did wrong, i guess there is some bug with encryption somewhere because i heard more people about it. But until we're not sure what causing it we can't fix it.

I am having the same problem...I change the password, and it works for a while, but then it seems to change itself. None of the passwords I have ever used as log encryption passwords work on it...
