Win Messenger 4.7 Signing In/Out on its own
My Windows Messenger v4.7 is signing in and out all on its own. I will be
doing something like working on a doc in MS Word and Messenger will automatically sign off (I can see this by the icon change in the notification area). A little while later, it will automatically sign back in. And, at times when its signed in and I attempt to change my status to busy or something, it will say it can't and sign me off. When its signed in, I am able to chat, voice or video conference with people. However, I have had it sign me off in the middle of chat/voice/video sessions. My brother claims that several times he has tried to initiate a chat session with me when he's noticed me signed in and as soon as he does, his Messenger will update to inform him that I have signed off. He thinks I'm avoiding him... I'm not. I am using WinXP Pro SP2, Win Messenger 4.7.3001, WinXP firewall enabled, WinXP auto updates enabled, Linksys router BEFSX41 installed w/ latest firmware, latest version of eTrust EZAntivirus. Is anybody having similar problems? Can anybody offer some assistance with this or direct me somewhere? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. ------------- Brian |

Win Messenger 4.7 Signing In/Out on its own
I have same problem. I see many people do & no solutions. I'm thinking its
IE7 or an MS update related, but no proof. It's enough to make you load AOL AIM. -- btlmessengerhelpme "Karen" wrote: I am having a very similar problem (post "Windows Messenge Automatically signs off whilst ...." 11.02.06) with messenger 5.1 and a linksys WRT54GX router - ahven't found solution yet.
