msn keeps hanging after i dloaded SP2

heys,

Im using Windows XP Pro. Just upgraded to Service Pack2.
ive got the latest version of msn beta and it keeps
hanging upon startupof the program. Ive tried disabling
the firewall but it doesnt help.

Anyone got any ideas other than to remove SP2?

thanks,
jd

 

Greetings jd,

When exactly did you do this? I ask because Messenger hasn't been in beta for nearly a week
now, but, the final release contains an issue where this can happen. So, if you do have the
final, you may want to downgrade to one of the beta releases:

or use 6.2 instead:

If this does correct the problem, are you using a router device of some kind; if so, what is
it?

hey, thanks for your reply.

I upgraded to msn7.0 build 7.0.0777 a few days ago. there
were no problems with it. Today SP2 sneaked into my
system and install itself automatically and my msn dont
work anymore. I have also repaired the msn files after
the SP2 installation.

Anyways, i have uninstalled SP2 and my msn's working fine
like it was before SP2.

Feel free to contact me if u need more info to find bugs.

Thanks,
