Build 0869

G'day all...

I was able to log on and work with the previous 2 builds, however the last
and the current I am unable to log on.

I've tried resetting my password, which was successful via passport
services. I've used my WLM email acct to sign onto the Beta users site;
ttp://www.ideas.live.com/whatis.aspx with no probs.

Any ideas? I've even turned off my firewall, incase it was that blocking
it - still no go. Look forward to your feedback.

Did a quick search within this newsgroup and search engine for connection
problems - nil result. Service status is all up and running from .NET Msgr
Service's end.

TIA

I mean Version 8.0.0689.00

Greetings,

Which firewall software are you using? A lot of firewall software won't identify new
versions of software and will simply block them -- you may need to readd Messenger to any
Exceptions/Allow list.
