for more than 2 weeks now that even if i choose the status online before
signing in to WLM, when it signs in , i appear off line to everybody.

i've tried web messenger, www.meebo.com , in my celular phone i use Turbo
Msn for Symbian with the N95... nothing works, so i guess that nothing is
wrong with my computer.

and anoher thing: when someone adds me to they're contacts list, i don't
recieve the notification to allow him in my list.

whats wrong? is it possible to change the server that my acount connects?

also , i have another messenger acount , and i have no problems in
connecting and everyone sees me online, but with my main acount it doesn't
work

Does everybody else appear online on your WLM when they are online?

i think it's about servers... i use a secundary account on my pc to connect
to WLM and i have no problems with it.. problems only with main account and
in 3 platforms (Symbian, Windows and www.meebo.com )

If signe-in under your ID and password on other machine occurs then you
will be automatically put in offline status. This happened to me.

If there is another machine which is running WLM and this WLM is signed
in by your ID and password, then you will be automatically put under
offline status on WLM on the machine in front of you.

I have three machines on all of which WLM are installed and they are all
set for auto start with passwords memoried. When I start one machine(A)
the WLM automatically launches and is signed in. Then if I start another
machine(B) I on machine(A) will be put under offline status with the WLM.

I am not sure if this is the case with your problem but the symptom is
similar: I can see all online partners but none of my partners see me.
