Since about four days ago, whenever I tried to sign into WLM it wouldn't work.  I just kept getting the troubleshoot box.  I tried re-installing WLM, I tried un-installing Msg Plus! Live, and I tried installing MSN 7.5.  None of these worked.  Does anyone know what my problem may be?  If you need more information just ask me.

It's not letting me sign in either

mines fine.. strange

This may be a local thing, like the MSN servers do not work for a certain area.

One thing is that you may have blocked msn.com and other WLM/MSN Messenger related servers from your hosts file. Also try calling up your ISP and see if they blocked some ports or blocked some hosts ect.

Try restarting your modem by unpluging it from the power for 30 secs then repluging the power. Try to see if any of your friends can use WLM/MSN Messenger.

Again this may (probably is not) a WLM/MSN Messenger server thing.

This probably won't slove your problem but still worth a try

I've tried all of those things except for the hosts file one.  I don't think I blocked them because I don't know how.  It isn't a local thing because one my my close by friends can get on fine.  I just need to do the hosts file thing.

have you tried doing a clean install of MSN Messenger anb WLM8 ? by removing the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger Reg Key also and the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSNMessenger Key? an reinstalling?

im facing a weird problem. i can sign in to WLM but i cant sign in to ideas.live.com. i registered my passport account again and it works.

WTF, it keeps on coming up it can't find the key ports
Why and how do i get them?

wierd.. has to be a problem with the server you prolly connect to.

Edit Mines been fine allday an night
