Messenger 7.5 has problems with AdMuncher. If it's your case, go to Admuncher configuration, Options, Filter targets, click on "msnmsgr" and "Don't filter". Apply and close.

Voil?.

Microsoft wouldn't release the software if no one could connect. I understand not everyone is having this problem.

I reported this bug to Microsoft when I was testing 7.5.

What a shame they didn't fix it.

Thanks for the workaround;))

Before I had to disable it, then connect and reenable it.

*hopes they fix it in a future release*

Strip registry settings, app data folder for MSN Messenger and remove MSN Messenger 7.5 and re-install - that'll work

I un-installed MSN Messenger 7.5 and restarted in Safe Mode then ran CCleaner and restarted again. I also deleted the contents of the Application Data/MSN Messenger folder. Re-installing MSN Messenger 7.5 still doesn't work.

I don't want to mess around deleting registry entries if I don't know what I am deleting. I have Messenger Plus! installed too and I don't want to deleted related registry entries for that.

    • Im in Ohio, and my VPN endpoint is in Boston. If that helps, it does happen both on and off the VPN. and again only in Edge.
    • It is such a shame. I used to really respect Neowin's articles.
    • So.... slower fixes and slower security updates are preferred? I mean, there is no goldilocks zone here until it can literally update without ever needing a restart, and even then I'm sure someone would complain.
