I can log in to WLM yet it doesnt seem to sign me in properly and many of my friends say i show as offline and the same friends show as offline on my WLM.

I use Windows 7 atm and recently have had problems with AVG which slowed it down to the point it was unusable.

what is going on? its really annoying me now, can someone help me please, i have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the latest one as well but it still wont work

Hello,

the Messenger service is currently having problems with contact presence information. The problem is known and should solve as soon as the Windows Live team has repaired the Presence service. You can find more information at http://windowslivehelp.com/.

At present there is no real way around the problem except to just wait it out, although some people have reported that signing into a webmessenger (such as in Hotmail) can help you show as online

Thanks for the help, much appreciated.
