Msn problem

[your nightmare]

Should using firefox affect the ability to download msn ?

When I try to download I get an error.It says it can't connect to server, but there's nothing wrong with my firewall and I can access all other pages

Does anyone knows how to fix this without changing firefox?

Are you using vista? If so, UAC's what you need to disable, I had the exact same problem.

 

[your nightmare]

No , XP , could it be the case for XP too , tough?

EDIT:Is there another chat program that allows me to chat with people who use msn?

Yahoo Messenger.

MSN is a problem unto itself.

I will give you the same answer I gave the last guy who posted about his MSN problems:

"Use ICQ"

ICQ is ****, can't play draughts on that.

 

[Pharaoh Llandy]

ICQ is ****, can't play draughts on that.

OH GODS YOU'RE RIGHT, THE INSTANT MESSENGER THAT DOESN'T HAVE A THOUSAND AND ONE ISSUES WITH IT, IS FUNCTIONAL AND EASY TO USE, AND IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR SPREADING MORE VIRUS' THAN A CHEAP AMSTERDAM PROSTITUTE IS **** BECAUSE YOU CAN'T PLAY ONLINE DRAUGHTS OVER IT. THANK THE GODS WE HAVE MSN, OUR MIDDEN-HEAP-REJECT-PIECE-OF-CRAP SAVIOUR!

This post contains 50% of your RDA of sarcasm.

Mine was pretty much 100%.

But I like MSN, I don't really get problems with it and viruses spread when accept obviously dodgy items or click on obviously dodgy links.


DON'T USE THE INTERNET LLANDY, SOMETIMES IT SUCKS AND HAS VIRUSES ON, STICK TO YOUR BOOKS!

 

[Pharaoh Llandy]

See, that's another 50%, you've gone and given yourself an overdose now. Best go and see your doctor... and don't be worried if he asks you to cough, that's pretty routine.

Could always settle for web messenger. Basically allows you to access MSN via the net.

google web messenger should be first link.

I use Trillian for my msn, unless I want to view/use a webcam when I switch back to regular msn.

There is also Miranda which I have not tried.

 

[guspav]

Yeah, trillian is pretty good, if you don't mind about the lack webcam support.
