| | Messenger connection port There should be an option to connect to msn messenger from other ports, or at least it should use the port 80 like the Google Talk, because worldwide there is too many people who want to avoid the firewalls that from a legal perspective, are against to the international right of expression and blocks the use of your software. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

| | Re: Messenger connection port Greetings, It already does and has since version 3.x. Messenger tries on port 1863 and failing uses port 80, all outgoing, all tcp. Both options require 443 (outgoing) to be available for Live ID authentication. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger/MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2007 Jonathan Kay.
