O.P. Error 80004005
[Image: OMG.jpg]

I am getting this error message everytime I try to sign into WLM and it's really ticking me off. :@

I can sign into my account w/the Windows Messenger (the one booted w/XP), and I can sign into my friends account from my computer.
I don't have another computer to sign into WLM w/my main account with, but I will try it as soon as I can.

Has anyone had this error before, and does anyone know how to fix it?

I've even google'd the error code, and found nothing that worked. :(

EDIT: If I click the trouble shoot, it just tells me there's nothing wrong w/it. ^o)

O.P. RE: Error 80004005
Alright thanks.
So what I'm getting from that is I need to upgrade to the newest version? :(

A lot/Most of my scripts/patches/hacks won't work w/the newest one though... however I'm bookmarking that for now. I'll try and see if there's any other way to fix it, but if not I guess I'll need to upgrade. :(

Just a question though, why does it only affect my one E-Mail account? You'd think that if I had to upgrade then it wouldn't let me log in w/ANY e-mail... and yet my friends email works perfectly fine... *-) any idea why?

EDIT: Do you think I could just re-install my current version? It isn't that old, it's one lower from the current one.

Ya, I google'd it before too. Most of them aren't any help, because that error deals w/not having an internet connection and whatever.
The thing is (I'm obviously on the internet. lol), I can still sign into WLM on other accounts! It makes absolutely no sense! It's just my e-mail, on my computer, with the WLM.

If I couldn't sign into it on anything else I'd be worried, but like I said... I can still sign into it on the Windows Messenger.

UPDATE: Allright, I upgraded to the newest version of MSN, (I even un-installed the old one first) and I'm still getting the same error code... Anymore ideas why?

I'm beginning to accept the fact that everything's gone, but I really don't want to. There goes all my DP's, emotes, winks, backgrounds, all of that... Some of the emotes/DP's were PAID CONTENT as well! :'(

Wow man, you are my HERO!!!!!!

If there's EVER anything I can do just let me know! ;)

(Only one problem... my emote keep going away everytime I upgrade to a newever version of MSN... Meh, all well. I've got them backed up so all I have to do is restore them. *phew* The sucky part 'bout that is that it'll only stick all your emotes and stuff to that specific MSN account... -_-

I think there needs to be something where you can save all that stuff [emotes, dp's, backgrounds, ect] and make it so you can import them onto another account. :))

I'll make a make note of that.

Um, 8.1 introduced a storage format, which is supposed to convert your old 8.0 data over, but of course may have broken; if you're looking for an explanation why it disappeared when upgrading.

lol, alright thanks.
Now I know WHY it disappeared, but do you have any clue on how to get it back? I found an emote stealer, so I have a .zip of all my emotes, but I really don't want to add all 500+ manually...
