i installed messenger (the latest one) but when i click on it nothing happens
and sometimes like a few hours later it comes up and when i sign in its normal but sometimes it stuffs up and i have to close it

a week ago it was fine same messenger same everything it worked perfectly then.

What Windows do you have?

windows xp home eddition

Do you have a router? If so, which one (brand and model number)? Try resetting it by unplugging it for one minute, then plugging back in and restart PC, as suggested here and here. Or disable then enable the network adapter.

I fixed it by resetting my router to default settings. Before I did that, I did a little test. I made sure no msnmsgr.exe was running went and disabled my network adapter (NIC), rebooted, and opened WLM and low and behold it opened. After that is when I re enabled my NIC then all of a sudden WLM stopped responding that when I went into my router and reset it to factory defaults, rebooted my pc and WLM opened fine and signed in fine.

hmm i can give it a go

so i just oull out the plug and wait 1 minute and it will work?

but can i just disconect the plus to mu computer because my brother is using the router too?

It would be best if you could reset the router, that seems to have fixed the problem for many people.

I'm not sure what you mean by "disconect the plus to my computer" ?

because my router is connected to 2 computers can i just pull out the cable to my computer because if u pull out the power plug of the router my brother will get angry

Errm.. you can try it. I don't know if it will work or not. Pull it out, wait a minute, plug it back in. Then restart your computer.

If that doesn't work, you'll have to try resetting the router when your brother isn't using it.

oh ok
thanks a lot

it didn't work D=
i might have to find another messenger program D=

i went to my control panel and to my network connections and it says msn is unavaliable- device missing, Firewalled

Double click your network connection, then click the properties box, then the advanced tab, under windows firewall click the settings button.

Once you are in firewall settings, click the exceptions tab, tick the box for msn messenger and delete it useing the delete button.

When you start up msn It will ask you the questions agian for allow access or not.

oh sorry
but it still wont work

Did you start up MSN again, and did it ask you to allow/deny ?
