jonathan thank you for your kind answer and please accept my apologies for i
reply your message so late due to circumstances,
i have checked my router and my local network with another pc, operated by
windows vista home edition, using both windows live messenger 8.1 and 8.5,
and seen all of them are perfectly fine, they are working very well, they
both execute windows live messenger.
i do what you suggest to do, downloaded windows live messenger 8.5 and
installed it. windows defender prevented msn live messenger to run in the
start up programs, so i removed it.
let me clearify the problem again,
even when my pc is not connected to any network it does not execute msn
messenger. when i open the task manager it operates it in processes and does
not execute, it does not seen in tasks with the status "running"
secondly, when i start the program, i cannot close it even when i order to
end it.
thirdly, the windows messenger is allowed through windows firewall.
if you need another datas to define or solve to problem i can send you a
hijackthis log file too.
thank you for your help,
best wishes
