Boswell Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) I know quite abit about computers but I can't get my head around why I cannot connect to Windows live messenger. I haven't been able to connect for around a week and have tried re installing, turning off my firewall and even test yahoo messenger which worked! The only thing I can think of is a firewall on my router but really don't think it's that. Anyone got any ideas?

Sean___John Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 If the date is set wrong on your computer then windows live wont let you sign in. it sounds stupid but its true so have a check to see if your date is right. It happened to me before and i couldn't work out why for weeks until i realized the date was wrong, so i changed it and then it worked again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
