Hey SuNcO,
I believe 7.5 did add the current proxy integration (there was no 7.1).
7.0 isn't supported on Vista at all, but it does work. However, you do not need it to run as
administrator rights. Simply popping open \Program Files\MSN Messenger and setting the
compatibility to msnmsgr.exe to be XP should be good enough.
If that doesn't work, perhaps other options might be advisable, like turning off IE proxy
option prior to loading and signing into Messenger and then turning it back on (this can be
done programmatically rather easily, assuming there's no GPO or registry permissions set to
block this from happening).

It appear that i can't post attachments here.. so.. i re-post without it
--------------------------
This is my all time problem
At work, employees are not allowed to use WLMessenger, see YouTube webpages, etc, etc.. so
there is corporate firewall. Some people (like me) still need that blocked stuff, so there is
a Pc that runs out the firewall. That pc has a proxy, so we can use it with credentials
Wen i use it, I can see every webpage that i want on Internet Explorer and Firefox. I can use
WLMail (Newgroups, Email and Rss) and Weather gadget (yes, the gadget ask me my credentials
and works)
Regard instant messaging i can use Digsby and aMSN.. but can't use WLMessenger
I have this problem since MSN Messenger 7.1 and (i guess) that was the time for the IE proxy
integration
Now, i install MSN Messengr 7.0 (must be elevated as admin and Vista compatibility) and just
can't login. It shows the "A newer version is available" dialog, it dissapear (the dialog)
and just freeze the app
The error is the classic 80072745
If the proxy were the problem then i was unable to use it at all
