Thanks reisy!!!! although it was 6.1 beta and had to upgrade it...THANKS!!
hooray, i can now sign in...and use 6.1..rather than gay old crappy windows messenger!!
anyway the difference between 6.1and 6.2 isn't that big right?

hm....although i really wonder what's wrong with 6.2....
btw, im using a fake version of win xp pro...so at first i thought that could be the problem...but i dunno

If any MS staff r reading this.....FIX 6.2...NOW!!! cos lots of people have problems with it!

My Windows Server 2003 is purely legal

Did you install the leaked version like I and wabz did?

What you mean Fake?  You could be using a modified version with some dodgy effects

I use a Windows 2000 and my copys sort of Legal   (it isnt installed on another machine anyways) 


and I just noticed the leaked version of 6.2 and the official version have the same Version number

He means the Corp version that was out 5 months before XP was, it had the first my letters of the COA FCKGW. It also doesn't have SP1

It was worth a try, i never had any probs with messenger 6.2 not with the leaked one an not with the official one..i got the official one thru mess.be (direct dl link in dwergs newspost). So i dont know why its not working for u cuz we both had the leaked one before the official one...could it be a bug slipped into the official one u dl-ed?

Mnjul, you can try to uncheck everything in your startup folder (start-->run-->msconfig) (except for like your AV and/or firewall, you can choose) and reboot. Then start msn 6.2 and see if it works, then check one additional program to start when windows starts, reboot and check msn 6.2 again and go on till you come up with something (or nothing at the end)

Thanks for that and...I had already tried it when I posted yesterday Obviously it didn't work Cleaning the whole Messenger registry doesn't seem to help either

And Sunshine, I did download the file from Micro$oft's server. And yeah, I have tried re-downloading for times

didn't know that, sorry.

Make sure everythins is updated and if it doesn't work you can go back too 6.1 and wait till the next release of a build 6.2, perhaps it will be solved by then .

Bah then i dunno anymore..im outta ideas what could be causing it

I assume u done everything possible already..from virusscan to adware/spywarescan and cleanin up the registry.

Last option i can think of is go back to rite after u installed the leaked 6.2 (dunno what the bugs inthere are tho an what they do) with systemrestore.

Just a note. That would only be if he had made a restore point before...unfortunately I can't see it cleaning up bugs from personal experience I haven't got very good results with it...disk images are far better...but I doubt there is one
