Stuck invitation

Every time I sign Into WLM the yellow bar appears telling me I have an
invitation. But if I follow the link there is no invitation there.
I pretty sure what happened is someone invited me and then blocked me before
I responded. So this invite is stuck there and shows every time I sign in
but I can't get rid of it.
regards
baz

Re: Stuck invitation

I had this problem as well once. Are there any invitations listed on
your Windows Live Home at http://home.live.com/ ?

Re: Stuck invitation

Greetings Baz,

From time-to-time, it will show invitations when they are none. It should just clear up on
its own in time.

Re: Stuck invitation

There are no invites listed when I log into http://home.live.com/
All other invites work ok. I.e. If the yellow bar says 3 invitations there
are actually 2 real invites plus this "phantom invite".
I am very certain that this was a real invite which I didn't respond to.
Subsequently I've been blocked by the sender and so I can't get access to
delete or respond to the invite.
But it still annoyingly shows up every time I sign into WLM (Vista SP1).
This has been happening daily for about 6 weeks now.

Re: Stuck invitation

Hi Baz,

You aren't the only person with this complaint, I hear about it weekly with exactly the same
thing showing.
