i tried using that but it didnt help, i also think it is for XP, its not the fact that i need to manage my contacts, because i HAVE deleted contacts to make room for new ones, but it still says my list is full....

you have a limit of 300 contacts


9 + 4 + 77 = 90

huh?

that does not make sence..

goto options, privacy, and check the names in the two listboxs...

delete some of them maybe?

i did as you said, deleted ALL the contacts i could on both the allow and the blocked list, but again it is saying my contact list is full when trying to add a contact. x

what version of msn messenger are you using? any plugins?

im using MSN 7.0
i added Plus, cos i thought it might help my problem, but it didnt make any difference.

i never had this problem untill i started using MSN 7.0, but you now have to use MSN 7.0 right???

well 7.0.0816 is the lastest version there are many versions out for 7

and plus 3.54 i cant remember the full version you can download both from my website

try reinstalling msn to

ok well sort me out with some links matie, that would be awesome! x

http://www.msgstuff.com/downloads/ you'll find all the plguins updated in there and my skins database is the biggest of 816 skins that i know of i'm proud of that

well, skins arnt gunna help me get my contact list back matie, but thanks anyway

may be it has to do with the fact that u deleted them but not blocked them..dont u think?

Try reinstalling msn messenger or check your registry i think you can change something there and get more space for your contacts...

the other day it wouldn't let me add, block, or delete.... The day before i put MDX on my computer... I got rid of that... and it fixed the problem.

The contact list limit is in the MSN Servers, you won't find anything in the Registry.

NoRoom's List Cleaner is helpful for this issue. But you can simply go to the Privacy panel of MSN Messenger and delete some emails from any of those lists.

Try adding someone through Web Messenger. If it still doesn't work, it's a problem with your account.

If it works (you can add someone through Web Messenger), uninstall MSN Messenger, clear your Temporary Internet Files folder (you can do this through IE), re-install MSN Messenger and try again.

If all this fails, try contacting MSN support.

no that was me... i wasn't the one who had the problem... i just thought he might've had mdx... and it could've been a bug.

what about that u change the profile's location?!! i didn't try it , but try !

I have exactly the same problem.


I have msn 7 and in the last few weeks suddeny its stopped me from adding people.

Ive deleted 200 people now trying to make space as it says "your contact list is full" and I have 100 left. Its crap.


I wish someone would find a fix for this.

I'd reccommend upgrading to MSN 7.5 ... but that's just me...



And good job! Thanks for using the search button! Most people don't

the contact list limit is 600 i believe, not 300...

i dont think 600 is official as of yet till yahoo an MSN actually Join networks together so its still 300

I think this has to do with the reverse list, used to store who has you on his/her contact list, which may be full. Use a tool such as NoRoom's ListCleaner to fix that.

i have around 350 contacts  ...

I say just delete msn messenger, re download, if the problem persists contact Microsoft directly, tell them the problem and see if they can check their database.

ive fixed it !!!


msn replied to me!!

thank god for that !!



right, go into your hotmail, the mail section click contacts and delete all contacts on the hotmail list.

dont worry they wont dissappear from msn messenger!


phew. thank god for that!


and btw none of anyones other options work
