View Full Version : MSN Messenger 6.0 File Sharing Problem

Help Please!

I'm trying out the new preview and am having a little problem with the file
sharing on my laptop. Everything else seems to work perfectly but when I
try to do file sharing it either 1) Just sits there saying "Waiting for User
to Connect" or 2) Generates a script error along with the waiting for user
to connect message. The specific script error reads like this:

Line 9
Char 2
Error. Unable to create the Shared or (and) Download directory.
Code. 0
Url.
http://appdirectory.messenger.msn-int.com/AppDirectory/P4Apps/FileSharing/en/fileSharingCtrl.htm

(looking at the webpage source, line 9 contains the following: obj.External
= window.external)

Can anyone help me with trying to troubleshoot this error? Could it be a
permission problem somewhere? I've already ruled out firewall, router,
Internet Explorer settings (at least by setting it to the least restrictive
settings I could find)

Would appreciate any help at all
Thanks in advance.

By the way... this is a really cool feature so I would really like to get it
working. It works fine on my desktop computer with pretty much the same
software configuration I use on the laptop.
