CookieRevised, I'm sure your information is very helpful to people having trouble with their contacts, but that isn't my problem. I did,though, download and and run you regedit program, however i still can't sign in. the error messgage i'm getting is

Error code: 80048820
Extended Error Code: 80048401

This error, and me not being able to sign in, started just after my windows live crashed,i was asked to send an error repor,but i didn't. Now when i try to sign in, i get those error codes.I've tried using the troubleshoot option,and tried fixing the problem many,many times. At first, it seemed the problem had something to do with the key ports, i tried uninstalling, then reinstalling, but then clicking on troubleshoot, the problem had changed to ''it seems your computer has an invalid IP adress'' So i searched the forums, and tried some information people had given,like repairing my internet connection (although it didn't need it) i checked my internet connection thoroughly,and everything seems fine there.I even tried downloading the earler, msn 7.5 in hope that windows live was having problems. But no luck, the same error came up. I'd really like some help,if anyone has had the same problem,please can you offer a fix...
thanks.


EDIT: Just thought i'd add, some people said they're able to sign in with other accounts.. i can't. Any account i try to sign in with, the same error codes come up. I have no idea what to do. Oh and i tried getting a new account, but for some reason,the page wouldn't display. Tried refreshing,but no luck. Other internet pages load fine though. heres a screenshot of the problem.

Well,it seems the problems fixed for now, i did a system restore to yesterday,when it was working just fine.When i tried to open windows live first,an error message appeared, urging me to uninstall,then reinstall.. so i did and everything works fine now.
