Minesweeper Game / Messenger 6.1

[Stephen Reed]

XP Home Sp1,

Hi.. Everything fine, no problems, then Widows Update
recommended that I install .NET 1.1 which I did...
Everything ok untill starting the Minesweeper game with
my buddy, which he started and once I had accepted it
would not load and then a 'Minesweeper is unavailable at
this time' (in not so many words appeard)? My Buddy says
he has no problems, and to date it still does not work?

Any ideas!

Greetings Stephen,

Usually this can be corrected by opening up the main Messenger window, click the Tools menu,
then Options, then Privacy tab, uncheck 'Always ask me for my password when checking Hotmail
or opening other .NET Passport-enabled Web pages' and click OK. Then trying again.
