O.P. WLM not signing in
Hi there, my brother's WLM is refusing to sign in. We've already tried uninstalling/reinstalling it, doing the HKEY/.../MSNMessenger removal from the registry to wipe the settings clean and all that, basically I've tried everything I can find as explenations from various forums, and still it won't sign in.
We've also tried signing into one of the various Web Messenger services and it worked fine.
WLM sits on the sign in page for about one minute and then says the following error message;
"We were unable to sign you into Windows Live Messenger at this time. Please try again later.
Windows Live Messenger has made several failed attempts to sign you in. Your firewall may be blocking Windows Live Messenger from connection t othe service. Please review your firewall settings. See the retailer's instructions for more information.
Error code: 80072efd"
Now the thing is,there is no Firewall beyond the Windows Firewall, which already has WLM on its Exceptions list. Also he was able to sign into WLM last night with no problems. He says he hasn't changed any of his settings or installed anything new, so right now we're stumped.
Any help that you could give would be greatly appreciated.
