RE: Windows live messenger won't install
Hi venomblade, According to Windows Live Help, it could be because your Windows Firewall is disabled. 1. Uninstall Windows Live Essentials. 2. Disable any firewall of security software you may have. 3. Enable Windows Firewall in Control Panel > Syste... | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 12-04-2010 at 02:32 AM |
RE: Problem with WLM2011 when booting up computer
Yes. Although Messenger does run when you login and opens the main window in the background when it signs in, there's no option to choose between running it in the background (minimized) or open in the foreground. [u]So why does Messenger run minimi... | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 12-04-2010 at 02:13 AM |
RE: how to use older version of MSN ?
Just download Messenger using the link Menthix provided (wlsetup-web.exe) and it'll work fine. | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 11-29-2010 at 10:54 PM |
RE: New Sponsor: Norton
If you're experienced with computers and trust yourself to watch what you're doing, both of them aren't required. Microsoft Security Essentials is much more simpler and doesn't bother you every 2 minutes with alerts like the other 2 do, however... | Chris4 | WLM Plus! General | 11-24-2010 at 11:01 PM |
RE: messager plus des not show
So you had WLM 2009, upgraded to WLM 2011, then downgraded back to WLM 2009 and now Plus! is suddenly not working...? :S You shouldn't just remove program files between installs. It's not necessary, unless you're following some sort of [url=http:... | Chris4 | WLM Plus! Help | 11-24-2010 at 10:51 PM |
RE: Flaw in the new "social" part of live?
I highly doubt it's a file from Windows Live Messenger. Does your anti-virus tell you the location that this file was found? It could be an infected Messenger add-on which only got detected after the WLM 2011 install. Your [url=http://forum.avira.co... | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 11-24-2010 at 10:35 PM |
New Sponsor: Norton
I came home from university today for the weekend and while using my dads XP computer, was alerted of a Plus! update.

RE: help with drivers
Not sure what you mean by that, but you shouldn't mess around with program files if you don't know what you're doing, otherwise you'll cause more problems. Just remove Messenger, restart your computer, then install it again. It should fix your e... | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 11-07-2010 at 06:41 PM |
RE: Software not loaded message
You probably updated Windows Live Messenger to the new 2011 version. Messenger Plus! Live is not fully compatible with it yet. Your sounds haven't been deleted, they're still there. You will need to downgrade to [url=http://explore.live.com/windows... | Chris4 | WLM Plus! Help | 11-07-2010 at 06:38 PM |
RE: help with drivers
Hi Liaamm123, What drivers did you uninstall? You only needed to go to Windows Live Essentials in the Programs list and choose to uninstall Messenger. | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 11-03-2010 at 05:09 PM |
RE: Taking away display names is HORRIBLE.
Also - If your Windows Live profile is connected to any services, e.g. YouTube, Facebook, MySpace, etc. it may get it from there, meaning WLM 2011 users will see it. http://profile.live.com/Services/ | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 11-03-2010 at 05:04 PM |
RE: Windows 7 Un-hibernating
I'm having the same problem. Mine happens at the same time every day (7a.m. :dodgy:) so I thought it'd probably be due to scheduled tasks. I deleted some of them which thought might be causing it, but I've been using Shut Down since, so not sure i... | Chris4 | Tech Talk | 11-01-2010 at 04:15 PM |
RE: Facebook syncing problems
I've installed WLM 2011 on my netbook and all Facebook friends have synced fine, so I don't understand why it won't work on my PC. I tried removing the service, deleting Messenger cache files and (temporarily) the ObjectStore folder, then re-addin... | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 11-01-2010 at 04:31 AM |
RE: Contacts appering offline when they are online
Hi suberbs, Messenger Plus! Live is just an add-on for Windows Live Messenger. It does not interfere with your contacts appearing online or offline. You can uninstall Messenger Plus! Live to confirm this. You're having an issue with Windows Live Mes... | Chris4 | WLM Plus! Help | 10-30-2010 at 01:04 AM |
RE: Facebook syncing problems
Ok, I'll see if the Support team can help. (Y) Not sure what you mean? You can't delete Facebook friends in Messenger, you'd have to delete them from Facebook. | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 10-27-2010 at 01:07 PM |

Facebook syncing problems
Hey. Here's the problems I'm having with Facebook/Messenger: [list] [*]Only 34 out of 300 Facebook friends have synced to the Messenger contacts list.

RE: webcam issues!
Incorrect - Sending your webcam to multiple contacts most likely uses more "resources and bandwidth" than sending a video call to one contact. By keeping with WLM 2009, you're missing out on the video quality improvements made in the 2011 versio... | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 10-24-2010 at 03:02 AM |
RE: Windows Live Essentials 2011 released
Oh right, apologies for making that assumption - wasn't aware of that. :S If you delete a contact and your [url=http://profile.live.com/privacy]privacy settings[/url] are set to private (friends only) - would the contact then not be able to talk to ... | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 10-24-2010 at 02:37 AM |
RE: extra, empty icon in the task bar
The same thing happened with me in Windows 7. You just have to delete the old icon and pin the new one. | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 10-23-2010 at 07:14 PM |
RE: Windows Live Essentials 2011 released
That's not true. Blocking is still there, it just has a different name - you 'appear offline' to individual contacts, which has the same effect of blocking in the old version. | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 10-23-2010 at 07:11 PM |

RE: WLM2011 & WLM2009
You can remove WLM 2011 at any time, you're not forced to use it. Your contacts who are using WLM 2011 will see your real name however, despite which version you use. You will not lose smileys, friends or anything by upgrading. | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 10-23-2010 at 03:52 AM |
RE: Pidgin questions (if you want nicknames/msn 2011)
Incorrect. If you want to use your Gmail account with Windows Live Messenger, you will need to register for a Windows Live ID, of which requires a first and last name. If you really don't want to share your last name with contacts, change it in you... | Chris4 | Skype & Live Messenger | 10-23-2010 at 03:43 AM |
