Hey,

About a second after I hit the login button I am hit with the 80072745 error
code. Heres what I have attempted:

- Reinstalling WLM
- Deleting contact cache
- Disabling all firewalls
- Adding the computer into a DMZ on the router
- Opening port 1863 on my router
- Lowering the MTU on my router

Ping:

O:\>ping messenger.hotmail.com

Bump. Still not fixed. Really, really annoying. Been happening for months now. Please note the trace route? Is it a problem at my ISP's end?

In XP there is also windows messenger (not the live version.) Try that and see if it works.
You should find it in the all programs section of the start button.
