Do you have a router by any chance, and what operating system are you using,
Windows XP, or Windows Vista?

Try unblocking these ports both on the firewall, and on your router.

Messenger server: port 1493, 1542, 1863, 1963, 80 TCP and 443 TCP
File Transfer/Sharing Folders: local: 1544 and 6891 - in fact 6720-65535 TCP
from one source
Messenger Update: remote: 80 local: 1457
Remote Assistance If available): 3389 TCP
Audio: local: , 1556, 11771, 13803 and generally 5004-65535 UDP
Remote Desktop and whiteboard: local/remote: 389, 522, 1503, 1720, and 1731
Launching Games: 80
Video Conference: TCP 9000-9999, 5004-65535 UDP + 80
Sign-In: remote: 443 local: 1484, 2400

See if that helps.

Hi,

That's so unnecessary and won't help.

Hi, my Windows Live Messenger keeps disconnecting after the recent update
too. I have allowed the program as trusted in my zone alarm. Is there any
other solutions to this problem?

Hi, is there any other solutions available? My friends are complaining to me
for signing in and out and I have been enduring it for the past few days. I
really don't wish to downgrade my messenger or switch to another one. Help
needed urgently. Thanks.
