WLM Invite doesent work by Hüstich on 12-30-2005 at 10:26 AM

I just recieverd a invite from a friend, but the Download Now link doesent work... It is made only of image and text, so there is no link...
I have 2 accounts, 1 hotmail account and one gmail, i only use my hotmail to access MSN, i didnt transform gmail into a passport. And the email was sent to my Gmail account...
Any suggestions? Here is a screenshot of the message

Try using IE if you use firefox.
Also, you can go to http://ideas.live.com (any browser), login, and scroll down to WLM and click Download Now :)

I use IE, and yes i have tryed that, no link :(

Edit: I got the invite today, does it need more time to update?

guess that I over looked that from the other posts.


RE: WLM Invite doesent work by squall_leonhart69r on 12-30-2005 at 11:07 AM

the problem occurs becoz Gmail doesn't read addresses like hotmail does, the >=20 in the link is actually mis read and so you get an invalid link message

this error was reported a while ago, and was actually known in beta1
