Windows Messenger Live Sign In problem
I'm trying to sign in into my Windows Live Messenger v8.0.0812, with my
account but without any luck. It doesn't show me any errors but can keep signing in for hours and even days (icon is still moving and applicaiton responding). The Strange part is that I can log into WebMessenger, my Hotmail account with the same user/pass and at least 2 other accounts on my Messenger. But my account just won't work! Tried to Rapair, Reinstall, Rename the folder "%appdata%\Microsoft\MSN Messenger" but nothing helps. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Windows Messenger Live Sign In problem
Hi,
Did you try using the troubleshooting tools available inside Live Messenger,. Try using that and there is a repair button also and in 90% that solves the connection issue. -- Regards M.

Greetings Alex,
To fix this problem, shut down Messenger entirely by right-clicking on its icon in the notification area and choosing Exit, then download and run this .reg file: http://messenger.jonathankay.com/dow...grsettings.reg Then try signing in again. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger/MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2006 Jonathan Kay.

Windows Messenger Live Sign In problem
Jonathan
I tried your reg fix and still have no success. My problem is that I simply get stuck on the signing in screen with no error messages... It has always previously worked for me, and I did not do any changes! What happens when I use your reg fix is that the first time I try to log on afterwards, I get :signing in to Windows Messenger has failed because the service is temporarily unavailable. please try again later. Error code 8004882c If I retry, I get the no error message scenario again. I tried following all the troubleshooting steps, deleting the contacts, reregistering all those files, deleting the DLLs, I went into regedit and manually deleted the policies. I uninstalled and reinstalled. I do not use any firewall except winXP. My linksys router im pretty sure if configured correctly. Like I said Ive been using messenger before with no problems. I can log into webmessenger, and when I try to log back on with windows messenger live, it logs me out of webmessenger, but it never completes the sign-in (with no error message) please help if you can!! thanks mike

Windows Messenger Live Sign In problem
Hi,
I have the same problem everyone is describing; two little messenger icons that just keep spinning but no sign in. I can sign in with my personal account on my notebook with no trouble at all but not my work account. I've downloaded the file as suggested by Jonathan Kay [MVP] but it hasn't fixed the problem...it is driving me CRAZY!!!
