Firewall Problem on MSN

HaydenWing

i dont know what is wrong but when i sign in my msn, it came out this:

Sorry, we were unable to sign you into Windoes Live Messenger at this time. Please try again later.

Windows Live Messenger has made several failed attempts to sign you in. Your firewall may be blocking Windows Live Messenger from connecting to the service. Please review your firewall settings. See the retailer's instructions for more information.

Error Code: 80048820
Extended Error Code: 80048439

please, what should i do?? :hmm:

biasanya, the server that host your account in down... probably under maintenance or something. try again later.

when i use my labtop to login, it works!

maybe u hav to set ur firewall to "Allow" MSN messenger to access the internet.

if already set to allow, maybe u should check ur username/password and also check other setting.

err... how many firewall do u hav?

yeah, check your firewall (if you have any). it's best that if you be more specific of your problem, such as what kind of tests you've done and what you have on your computers.

I guess..the solutions to MSN Error Code 80048820

Internet Explorer - Try removing Internet Explorer proxy server settings
and go with the 'Automatically detect settings'..

1) Launch Internet Explorer / Tools / Internet Options.

From the Internet Options dialog box, go to the Connections tab.

Click LAN Setting. Un check the Use a proxy server for your LAN

& tick 'Automatically detect settings'.]

If problem still persist, Maybe you should upgrade to the latest version of MSN Messenger:

http://webmessenger.msn.com/

And ..if ur messenger still fails, goto Meebo.com and see if u can log into MSN from there
