Meh. Same old story. I got the:

"The following message could notbe delivered to all recipients:

x"

problem.

Restarted, seems to work now. But my concern is- as this is the second time I've got it- I need to know whether this is a problem with the WLM server or my computer. Is there a way of checking?

the service status is one way, also if you try pinging* someone, it should really take over 3 seconds (on average over like 5 - 10 time) on a dial up.

*(type /ping in a conversation - pong [the echo] should be less than 3 on dial up and should really be 1 sec for broadband)

I have tried /pinging before... and service status doens't really make a difference.

One of my contacts who lives near me also has received bouts of this message, yet many more times than me.

maybe it's your isp's connection?

that is if you and your contact ahs the same isp..

I dun think so... Has anyone else received this problem recently?

i had it when the wlm/msn/microsoft servers were hacked by it seems to be fine now.  try disabling your anti-virus/firewall - may open up more port to allowed messages to go through.

Did you actually read that news report?

it said the South Korean version of the website had a password stealing script on it.

Says nothing about messenger and its service..

It was also dated around June (or February.. ) thus being fixed even before you began experiencing problems.

If you even read further into it, it says that it was only focused on a South Korean server.

A spokesman, Adam Sohn, said Microsoft was confident its English-language Web sites were not vulnerable to the same type of attack.
