Hi,

Well the login process is different -- just like if you use Windows Messenger (not Live) it
uses a completely different version of the protocol which might allow you to sign in.

If one allows you to sign in but another doesn't it's either inconsistent or a problem with
the process involved with signing in with a specific version of the client.

Either way, I hope to have more details within the hour.

Right now I can't access from MSN Messenger 7.5. I get the 81000314
message like everyone else.
I have read the thread so it does look like a server issue.

For some reason though, Web Messenger works.

Jonathan, any idea why the regular client does not work, but the web
browser client works fine?
