Vista - Live Messenger randomly going offline, messages not going through

03-04-2009

Hi, I have been trying to correct an odd issue for the past two weeks with no
success. Live will show me as online on my end but will switch between online
and offline on my contacts' ends. This behavior has been replicated on
numerous computers on networks at home, school, and work with Messenger
version 8.1 through 9.

Additionally, I am often not receiving contact list updates. To make things
worse, I am randomly not receiving messages from contacts. These messages
will either not appear at all or appear as offline messages when I re-sign
in.

Are there any solutions? Does anyone have similar problems?

Thank you!

Yep, same here but the other way around: multiple contacts overe here are
showing offline while in fact they are online. And they are not receiving
messages I send when we do chat ... or they get those messages 12 hours
later! Been going on for around a week now :-(
