| Guest | Re: who answers these besides Jonathan? Greetings Susie, Well whoever comes by ![]() The newsgroup is considered "peer to peer support", in other words, people helping other people. If I personally don't answer a specific post it's either because I don't know or don't have time to properly research or do the testing necessary to give an accurate or useful answer. So, I don't have anything against Susie or the female gender (most days anyway), so I apologize if it seemed that way, as it was not my intention. Anyway, your question. Basically what you're saying is that you're typing back and forth to your contacts and they're not receiving you and you're not receiving them. It's inconsistent too judging from what you've said (aka it works sometimes). As Good News said in a previous post, we really need more information. For example, what version of Messenger are you using, what version of Windows you're using, and what is your networking scenario? By networking scenario I mean are you at home or at work, are you using a router, Cable/DSL, and any third-party firewall applications (Norton Firewall, ZoneAlarm etc.). I realize you may or may not know all this but any info would be helpful to at least get started in some things you can try to try to solve the problem. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "Susie" <Susie@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:A33E0DA9-4D38-4ED8-9BAD-C218C178CF99@xxxxxx

| Guest | Re: who answers these besides Jonathan? Hi Susie, Gotcha, that rules out most of the more general possibilities. Another thing to check is if you're directly connected to the service or not. You can check by clicking the Tools menu, then Options, then Connection category and after giving it a few seconds to fully enumerate, see what it has to say about your particular networking scenario. Then just post the results back of what's listed there. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "Susie" <Susie@xxxxxx> wrote in message news FDACC31-6B09-4716-A3D6-6A4ECED070AA@xxxxxx

| Guest | Re: who answers these besides Jonathan? Hi Susie, So that rules out a lot of problems. You effectively have a "normal" configuration (exciting, huh?). Unfortunately that means I'm running out of ideas. I assume this is a continuing problem for you as otherwise you probably would have given up on me. A note though, do you happen to use the handwriting at all -- where you click the tab at the bottom of the conversation window and draw to your contact? If so, this commonly with disrupt Messenger from sending messages after awhile and then you need to right-click on the Messenger icon in the notification area (the area by the clock) choose Exit and then run Messenger again. Also, just for the sake of testing, the next time this seems to be happening to you, follow the same procedure and see if it starts working again when you sign back in. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "Susie" <Susie@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:F0D5A35A-7D17-404C-9123-A6111C66D16B@xxxxxx
