The current msn problem can be solved by getting an ICQ number.

http://www.icq.com

If anybody who was on my list and cant get in touch with me over msn, my number is 333-513-547

The 3d chat is coming...
In the meantime, come in the IRC. Ask me for details!!.

It logs in fine, and you can see who's online, but nobody can recive messages.

I've just noticed that - I get the error 'You have to many conversation windows open to send message?'

What do you think Microsoft buggery of software or DOS attack?

Um..Hate to break it to you but I still can't send any messages - I don't know about reciving them (people could just be ignoring me)!

Edit: Clicking on 'You have 1 new email message' also opened my Outlook Express - exceptionally weird as I use a hotmail account and my outlook hasn't even been set up on this computer as we never really used it on my last one.

This seems a bit freaky to me, the MSN status page says everything is fine. And now it seem's I can send messages to one of my friend, but no-one else!

Very strange, I reckon this has to be a worm or something!

lol, they don't owe you one. It's their server, and I bet somewhere in the license agreement it says that the service is at their discretion
