Have I killed MSN?

Have I killed MSN or is it inexplicably dead?
Not working on 2 PCs in the house but noticed web messenger seems to be working, so wondered if I've knackered something.

Running MSN or Live Messenger? Live is.....alive here.

Haly · 11-09-2006, 16:17

MSN.
I've just tried installing Live and it won't connect either :/
Just says it's temporarily not available.

Just had a quick look at help:

Quote:

Error 81000314, 81000377 or 81000378: Your contact list is not available

If you receive one of these messages, your contact list is not available or is in read-only mode. Wait a few minutes, and then try to sign in again.

The first error code is the one I get.

Hmm, dunno then. Cant find anything on the MS sites, but they're never the fastest updating.

[edit]I've had that before and it did indeed go away on its own. Ages ago though.

Haly · 11-09-2006, 16:22

Actually, I get a different error message sometimes too :/
Also says there's a problem with the firewall. But when I test the connection through its troubleshooter, I have no problems come up.

A couple of people on my list went offline earlier mid conversation and they're ntl customers too, so it could be an ntl issue.

Haly · 11-09-2006, 16:32

Hmm hadn't thought of it from that angle. Maybe then.
They have been pretty good lately so maybe this is their revenge

Probably! At work it randomly disconnects sometimes and a while later just suddenly reconnect.

Well 3 PCs in the house with MSN not working, unless the settings fairy has been around in the night, I suspect this problem is out of my hands
