MSN Disconnecting

[Boozman]

Hi,

Past few days ever since i got my new PC, MSN will disconnect every once in awhile. There is not really a pattern but it does trigger a disconnect sometimes when I start a new message or a Group message opens. Never had a problem with this before. I am thinking it is my Router because I tried it on my laptop and I get the same results, it disconnects the same way and I have always ran MSN fine on my laptop.

Any ideas on what might be causing this? Help would be much appreciated.

Only thing I can think of is to check your firewall settings and see if msn is being allowed access through, and perhaps look to see if your modem is letting it through the right posts.

Firewall seems to be fine, And do you mean ports?

Boozman, I have this for 5 months now.
I don't know how to fix that either lol.

I'll read this topic to get my solution aswell, as I just disconnected twice while typing this ;(

Ch'yeah, was a typo.

Most likely a virus has been sent to you through msn from offline messages. I had this, the only way that fixed it was cleaning out my computer.

You have it all wrong, It was just signing me out. But it's fixed now so...

I bet you have the new "Windows Live Essientals or what it is named.
I get disconnected randombly by it, and i have heard about other who does too.
