Vista - Ping not answered by host

03-03-2009

Hello

I installed Live Messenger. It keeps getting disconnected every minute.
After several installs, uninstalls and updates, I sniffed its communication
with the server.

The protocol is working at the connection phase. But after a minute or so,
the client send a PNG packet (ping) that server never answers. After five
retries, the connection is aborted (error 10053) and the phase connection
starts again after a while.

Any idea how can I avoid the ping packet?

Thank you,
nafiton
