Silvorgold Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 whenever i am downloading ANYTHING or even going on a webpage half the time, msn signs out without asking me or anything, its really getting on my nerves, the only way i can keep it from shutting down is if i type 2 alot of ppl n keep msn busy, how can i make msn stay signed in when i'm dling something without using something like trillian? btw im on a cruddy 28.8 connection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazydesert Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 maybe its isp or modem problems more than it is msn problems... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvorgold Posted May 16, 2002 Author Share Posted May 16, 2002 ok i'll try, although it wont accept older versions of msn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC Posted May 17, 2002 Share Posted May 17, 2002 there are sites that have archives of older versions of messenger. . . you can try those out. Hold up, with XP the MSN Explorer software, which MSN Messanger is intregrated into, you should only use the software that come's preinstalled on XP, we are having major issue's with this right now! BTW: do you use MSN Explorer, and do you have a MSN IA account, maybe I can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvorgold Posted May 19, 2002 Author Share Posted May 19, 2002 ya i do use msn explorer (rarely tho), usually only use it if OE is acting up for my hotmail acct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheekymonkey Posted May 24, 2002 Share Posted May 24, 2002 For reference: https://www.neowin.net/comments.php?id=4568...8&category=main https://www.neowin.net/bboard/showthread.ph...&threadid=28332 And the ongoing MSN Problems Post Hope these help. BTW, last time I checked MSN Messenger was free ;) but I know that it's a major pain when there are outages. MSN dialup problems are another issue altogether.
