O.P. Friend can send sounds but can't hear them
I have a friend who can send sounds but can't hear them, he has msn 7.0 obviously, the latest Messenger Plus, media player 10, and everything as it should be in the Messenger Plus sound settings, can anyone help?

RE: Friend can send sounds but can't hear them
i msn contact list> plus> preferences> general options> sound. then make tick on automatically play custom sound when ready...?
if it doesnt fixes the problem then ask him if he could listen other sound from msn like bult-in sounds of hello, bye, trekkie, imperial march, evil laugh etc..

also answer this: what does your friend exactly see in his conversation when he sends a custom sound? (a screenshot from your friend would be excellent)

Music etc does play so it's not a problem with his speakers...he has everything selected that should be and sees the sounds he can send etc the built in and others but he can't hear them.

Does he see the option to "hear this sound" next to the sound or is it "downloading" or just the sound name?

Okay if he can't play any sounds in Internet Explorer, try this:

In IE, go to

Tools,

Options,

Advanced...

Scroll down to multimedia

check if play sounds in web pages is ticked.
