O.P. Can't sign into old Messenger.

I can sign into MSN Messenger 7.0 but not the Windows Messenger that came with my computer.

It doesn't say the error, but a window pops up and says "Signing into .Net Messenger Service failed because the service is not responding. The service is not available or you may not be connected to the Internet." Yet I am on the internet.

Try clearing IE's cache.

Why not get 8.0 / 8.5 BETA 2 (WLM 2008) ? They are newer versions with improved security and UI. (:

My intention was to get a new messenger, given the above titles and reasons.

But considering spongeboy can sign into MSN Messenger makes your post irrelevant.

spongeboy....what version of Windows Messenger are you using? (Click on Help and then about to find out)

Also, just a point worth noting, if I remember correctly Windows Messenger and Windows Live/MSN Messenger use different servers altogether.
