Having the same probs, with 2 different addresses, one on yahoo, one on
hotmail, neither were showing up on my 'online contacts list'
Friend had a brilliant idea, uninstall and reinstall live msngr.. i did.
Now, I cant even log in at all. It gets to the 'signing in' with the msn guys
(the green and blue msn ppl) moving about, but just sits there forever,
doesnt do anything else.
So now, the only way i can be on messenger is either to use webmessenger or
to use Windows... neither of which is appealing.
Ive uninstalled, totally removed every piece of the program i can find, then
reinstalled, and am still having the same problem.
Is there something else i can do?
