MSN Live Messenger use about the Port 80

Hello.

I have one question. In my firm i cant use MSN Messenger because the ports
are closed.
I want to aks if there is a possibility to use MSN through the Port 80?

Or what can i make to use it?

Does MSN Messenger work with internal Network (LAN) ?

Thanks!

Greetings Marco,

Yes Messenger will use port 80 if it can't make a connection on 1863. It does however
require access to 443 for authentication.

And no, Messenger will not work internally -- it needs to access the public .NET Messenger
service.

I want to ask if i have another possibility to use MSN in the firm. The
Ports for MSN are closed.

Hi,

Perhaps via a web client like http://webmessenger.msn.com ?
