hey. i need help. is your messenger 7.5 working? mine dosent seem to work.
when i sign in it says that " Msn messenger had made several failed attempt
to sign you in.Your firewall may be blocking messenger from connecting to the
service.Please review your firewall settings. see the retailers instructions
for more information." below there is this number : 80072ee6

i have checked my firewall settings, my firewall is off. furthermore, when i
run the msn messenger connection troubleshooter all the individual test
results has a green tick beside it except for wireless. i do not know what
that means. when progress is completed, repair button is clickable. when i
click thr repair button nothing exactly happens.

Then i go to tools>options>connection. over there my connection status says
that i am currently NOT connected to.NET Messenger Service. A refresh button
is there but nothing happens when i click it. right below is connection
settings. an Advanced Settings button is there. i click it & it brings me to
Internet Explorer Connection Settings screen. there are 3 tests here. the
first is a TCP test.

My Tcp Test says that : Success, you can connect to Msn messenger service.
the 2nd test has a few things to fill in. my SOCKS is already been filled is
but i do not know if they are right. my username & password blanks are blank
so i do not know what to fill up & when i click test, is says :Connecting to
the proxy... We are unable to connect (8007274D).the third test is a HTTP
Proxy server one. however the HTTP Blacks are grey( cant type in them) again
the username & password blanks are blank & i have no clue on what to fill in.
However when i click test it says : Connected, Verifying ability to send data
now...Success, you can connect to the MS messenger service.

After all this i still cant sign in my msn messenger 7.5. i have reinstalled
it a few times but no avail. all this did not happen with my previous MSN
version.

It is all so confusing. please if you can help me i wold be grateful. anyone
who has a clue please reply me or e-mail me jellysotong13@hotmail.com.Thank
You.

"Voice Clip" is pretty cool. Cooler if the recipient didn't have to press
"play", tho

Hi,

Actually you shouldn't have to as long as the 'Play voice clips automatically when they are
received' option is checked within the Tools menu, Options, Messages category.
