gameheads exe replacer bust msn so it wouldnt sign in but after reinstalling msn6 it worked again so i tried yours aaron and that has totally f**ked it up even after complete uninstall/install of msn6 it wont work and so i went to use windows messenger which worked ok but needed updating, so i updated it and then that wont sign in either just get this so then i came to presume it could be aol (hrm yes i know) which when i went into network connections you cannot alter the dial up connection in anyway and im not sure but i think it used to be set as default connection which it isnt now and it wont let me set it to default either. i also have a NIC installed so i thought maybe msn could be trying to sign in via a network so i disabled it so that only the aol connection could possibly be used but still no luck, neither windows nor msn6 messenger will sign in, yahoo,icq and other messengers work perfectly. I have also tried to sign in through a proxy but still no luck also. What the hell is it?
