So, this week I realise Live Messenger really is crap…
I have 4 main MSN accounts which I use. Thanks to a polygamy hack, I have 3 of my accounts running at one time, plus I have the 4th on my Sidekick.
This is all fine n’ dandy…
Well, usually it is.
Occasionally, someone who I am chatting to on my Sidekick wants to send me a picture or initiate a webcam chat - naturally I can’t see or receive the goods on the Sidekick, so I have to log on - I seem to not be able to log on using my main account. Thinking this was an isolated case, I didn’t worry about this - but a week later I realise I STILL can’t use Live Messenger for that login. The login works for all other accounts and this account works on all other MSN clients like trillian, GAIM and all the web-based chats - including the one Microsoft hosts.
I thought it may be Vista, so I bounced back to XP and the same thing happened there. I even ran some XP VMs and the same thing happened.
Microsoft hates me.
Anyway, this is the same account which manged to delete half of my contacts list a few weeks ago. If anyone out there knows a solution to this, drop me an eMail or IM me.
My MSN/gTalk/eMail is: thatgrumguy (at) gmail.com.
Ta.
So confused with all your computer geek babble. HOpe you sorted out your problem anyhow.
