Hi all!
Thx to a tip I received from an online friend, here's one way to fix Windows Live Messenger temporary. Please help to spread this message.
This is the original message probably from the MSN staff.
Yes. Msn. not Msm.
Lol.
"Hello,
As per the problem you mentioned, here's a temporary fix:
Login as admin to your computer, open this file in notepad "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\hosts"
Add these two lines to it and save
65.54.239.80 messenger.hotmail.com
65.54.239.80 dp.msnmessenger.akadns.net
Exit MSN Messenger and reopen it.
Should work, spread it around if it does."
Here's the correct way to fix it though.
Open the folder "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc"
look for a file called hosts
Open it as Notepad.
To do so, simply double-click on the file, den select "Select the program from a list"
Den scroll down until you find "Notepad".
Click on it and press "Ok".
Add these 2 lines:
65.54.239.80 messenger.hotmail.com
65.54.239.80 dp.msnmessenger.akadns.net
at the end of the file.
Exit MSN Messenger.
Re-open it.
Sign in =)
Spread the message pple!!!
If the above tip did not help you, please do not contact me.
My Msn is working now though.
