Default Lost MSN contacts

Hi there!
After a 6 months period of no usage of MSN (I know, a long long
time...), today I connected to messenger and... SURPRISE! All my
contacts were no
more there.

Is this behavior normal? Is there a way to recover the contacts?


Any hint appreciated.
Thanks!

Default Lost MSN contacts

Hi,
an update:
I downloaded Live Messenger 8.1, and I cannot login, the error code
is:
81000378 (contacts list not available).
Two days trying, always same result.

Does anyone know how I can solve this situation?


Thanks!
Antimo

Hi Antimo,

I'm in the same boat. My life has been really busy the last 18months and
just didn't get to sign in, with all the travel and work.

Just installed the latest version of Pidgen and bang, all except 3 contacts
are gone. I guess the moral is don't trust Microsoft to look after your data.

Regards

James.

Default Lost MSN contacts


Hi there,

Well, that makes us three. I have the exact same problem.
I don't sign in for a log time and yesterday I tried and all my contacts had
gone. I tried to install live messenger and it didn't helped - no contacts
available.

I also tried to check which contacts have me on their contact list and
nothing...

Hope someone can help us with this issue.

Best regards,

Riddle
