You see, sometimes I don't get some of the messages that my contacts post, and they don't get some of mine either. This is of course quite frustrating, because MSN doesn't warn either of us of this fact. I can't even have a normal conversation over MSN currently, so I'm using an third-party application, and it works fine over there.
I already tried reinstalling, but it didn't work. Any ideas?

what version did you use?
Quote from: Gray Fox;1671753what version did you use?
The newest one. 8.5, if I'm not mistaken.
Is that the same one as messenger 2009, because I use that one and the previous version I used had the same problems you have

Did you install anything that might interfere with it recently? (Firewalls come to mind)
You could also go looking for an older version of Messenger on microsoft's site.
Or you could use Pidgin and get my super secret clock crew smiley pack so you can see CC smileys when I type them.

Downloaded a new copy.
Ok I was gonna say if you did it through the uninstaller to try downloading a new copy. After you uninstalled, did you look to see if it left any files behind?
