Messenger sending files problem
Greetings Sergio,
Most likely what you need to do is configure the Windows XP Internet Connection Firewall for Messenger file transfers. To do so, click Start, then All Programs, then Accessories, then Communications, then Network Connections. Right-click your connection, then click Properties. For cable modem/broadband users, your Internet connection will usually be called Local Area Connection. For dialup, it should be the name of your Internet Service Provider. Click the Advanced Tab, verify the Internet Connection Firewall is in fact turned on, and then click the Settings tab. Click the Add button and then in the Service Settings, type in the following: For Description enter Messenger Connection, for Name or IP address enter 127.0.0.1, for both External and Internal ports enter 6891. Verify TCP is selected and click OK. Now repeat the last step but change the ports to 6892, 6893, 6894, 6895, 6896, 6897, 6898, 6899, 6900. Yes, 10 (including the first one) will now be selected. Then click OK. You should now be able to send files. However, if your clients were using MSN Messenger 6.x also, the file would just send through the server, so if you continue to have problems, you might want to ask your contacts to upgrade (especially those that you send files to regularly). ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "Sergio Antunes" wrote in message ...
