Messages / Invites not getting delivered

Good Afternoon,

I'm hoping someone can help, I've tried searhing for a solution to this
issue to no avail. Basically when using WLM some messages that are sent don't
get through to my contact and vice versa. I don't recieve any notification of
this, until my contact starts asking why I've not replied to them! It would
seem that this is only happenening to me on my laptop (other PCs I use seem
fine), and it doesn't matter if it's connected to my network at Home or Work.

The other problem is with getting Invites to play a Game or view a Webcam. I
have never managed to get a Webcam invite through to my laptop, whereas any
other computer I use has no problems accepting. My contact will send the
invite and it just won't appear at my end. With Games I have found that if I
restart messenger I will occasionally get the invite come through.

I know that these messages and invites are getting sent as I have remotely
connected to thier desktop and watched them send them.

I have tried removing messenger and reinstalling but it didn't help. Anyone
have any ideas what factors could be causing messages to dissapper like this?

Thanks for any input you may have,

CMM

We are having the same problems. Now have the ridiculous situation of using
Skype for video (and to check we are both still there) while we continue to
chat in WLM.

Well at least it's good to know that it's not just me. You'd of thought that
issues like this wouldn't be so common in such a widely used piece of
software...
