That worked. I only restored to earlier today previously. I think 6.1 won't accept long names or something, or has a problem with messenger plus. Boo on auto updates. :thumbsdow

ya its pretty much the same as 6.0, u can just use windows messenger if you want, go into control panel, double click on add/remove programs, go to windows components and check mark the windows messenger and countinue with the next button

Anyone got a link for v6.0?? This 6.1 BS is pissing me off.

Looks like v6.1 pings the hotmail/messenger server upon startup and the firewall isn't liking that too much.

Fucking POS.... Time to submit an invoice to MS...

To make it work:

Delete or rename MSN Messenger folder in "C:\Documents and Settings\[you're user ID]\Application Data\Microsoft" Should be OK after that.

Yeah. Mine fucked up when I upgraded. I just created a new passport. Didn't talk to half the people on my list anyways. :nut:
