haydon_peter Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 When I try to log into MSN it just says "sighning in" forever and ever... My sister stupidly saved her password on the system so she can be signed in automatically and I can sign into her account no problems. I can still log into my email from www.hotmail.com which is a good thing I spose, but why cant I sign into MSN? I have had the same email address since I first discovered the internet years ago when I was 13/14, I dont want to change my address just 'cos MSN is being a wanker. I want to go on MSN :S Can anybody help suggest whats going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RicH_87 Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Had this problem for about 8 months now. My msn is so homo it's practically Barny The Dinosaur. I've found that when i'm signing in it gets to a certain point then stops. If i leave it, it'll cancel itself then try and re-connect after a 30 second countdown. However if i intervean and keep right clicking on the MSN taskbar icon (on the windows start bar thing), then i can sort of manually load it and eventually it gets there, (kinda like pull starting an engine). It'll still take a few minutes to sort itself out, and it'll ring loads and show sign in icons for everyone who's online. I've tried loads of times to fix it, I got a new address but no dice, i unistalled and re-installed, i upgraded, downgraded, i re-installed Windows Messengers incase it needed that to run and i didn't know, but it still does it almost everytime. My brothers, sisters and home computer all sign in fine, so it's either someone/something on my list that skrews it up, or it's simply my pc.

tomturd Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Have you tried using another instant messenger program that lets you log into MSN? Try jabber or GAIM :S (not sure if GAIM is available for windows but worth a look) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siders77 Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Give GAIM a go. I had it on my old PC, I liked it. :P Get it from www.majorgeeks.com :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Or the official site http://gaim.sourceforge.net/win32/index.php :S Another client is aMSN http://amsn.sourceforge.net/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downhill_rob2@hotmail.com Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Why not just try windows messenger? Its crap like, but it still works :S Should be up there on explorer ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haydon_peter Posted October 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 I have e-mailed the geeks at MSN begging for their help :P I dont want to be using another program unless I have to! For the time being I can log into windows messenger but it really isnt that nice :S I have just upgraded from the crappy USB modem supplied by the internet provider to a Netgear broadband router/firewall (Why I didnt ages ago is beyond me, I will never go back to a USB modem!), its unlikely but could this be blocking something? I highly doubt it seeing as I can sign into my sisters MSN but I just find it funny how the problem has started since upgrading to this router...
