OWZAT Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 (edited) G`day Fellas , I would totally uninstall it , delete it , empty the Recycle bin , restart , and download the updated version and Install it again. It worked for me . Mick Edited July 1, 2006 by OWZAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrsswordfisherman Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Here is another thought, what version msn are you on? Check here and download an earlier version perhaps http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...;displaylang=en At the bottom of the page you can get d/l's for versions 6.2, 7.0 and 7.5 If you are using IE try going through MSN explorer Cheers mrsswordfisherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OWZAT Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 (edited) owzat i already did that too friends over seas and i cant afford to call em Knappers , I have completely Uninstalled MSN from My Computer , because its just too much trouble , and is plagued with gremlins . But if you want to call friends overseas , then you can do so very cheaply with "engin" , and it only costs 3.5 cents per minute. Check it out out here.. http://www.engin.com.au/public/callrates.htm Now the best thing about this program is , you also are calling them direct to their landline , and not having to wait till they come online. You also can call anybody anywhere in OZ for 10 cents a call , any time of day , for as long as you want , and it still only costs 10 cents. Slip into Tandys or Dick Smiths , and buy the starter Kit for $10.00 , you also need a desk mike $10.00 , or a set of head Phones , the ones with a Mike $8.00 in woolies , and you are in buisness . You plug the Desk Mike or Head Phones into the back of your pc along side the speakers and you are done You install the program ( Its simple ) you recive an activation code by email , and bingo ( The World 3.5 cents per Min ) , Anywhere In Oz , any time of day or night , for as long as you want for 10 cents ! , and you also have $4.30 credit to begin with ( 43 Calls ) . I now ring around Australia and regularly chat to Family and friends for a 10 cent fee , and have stopped running up large STD Bills months and months ago. Mick And By the way , The Ad And remove program in control panel does not completely remove MSN , you have to run this to do it properly .

mrsswordfisherman Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Lots of help here. Try Skype for excellent program. It uses p2p technology. It is free, just download it and use as instant messager or call friends. You can have group chats with up to 100 people and conference calls with up to 4 people at once. You can do video chats and send files etc... http://www.skype.com/download/ Cheers mrsswordfisherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
