Sign In problem with MSN Messenger 7.5 (Build 7.5.0311)
I cannot sign in on MSN messenger 7.5 after doing an upgrade of
aforementioned application.
I signed on early in the morning to MSN Messenger 7.5 and got a pop-up
indicating that there was newer version. I proceeded in updating my version
and since than I am not able to sign in.
I am told I either have no internet connection (wrong! I am connected!) or
it is my firewall blocking it (error code 81000306). I use Norton Internet
Security and the firewall setting for MSN messenger says Permit All!
By troubleshooting my MSN Messenger by going to the menu option:
Tools>Options> Connection, I get the message: "You are currently NOT
connected to .NET Messenger Service"
I checked the Service Status on the sign on screen and get the message " All
systems are stable and running".
I also started the MSN Messenger Troublesooter and get the message: "Default
gateway appears to be offline".
I hope someone can help me sort this out! Thanks.
PS I have also noticed that I cannot sign in on MSN explorer. Internet
explorer works fine, but the sign in screen on msn explorer just stays
permanently on the flying butterfly, and after a while I get the message
that I cannot sign in and have to check my internet connection etc…
