Anyways, ever since the other day, my MSN decided not to sign in anymore. Right now I am using Trillian, but I would like to use MSN again.

So far I have:

-uninstalled, reinstalled
-scanned for spyware
-looked the error code up (8100030d) yet had no results
-checked and made sure it was not my router
-checked firewall

I think that is about it for what I have tried. Can anyone help me? It is really annoying me.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Here's your best option:
1. Format
2. Install Linux
3. Install Kopete/Gaim/amsn :p

But seriously, after a bit of Googling, it seems as though that error number tends to be associated with firewalls.

Check <a href="http://messenger-support.spaces.live.com/">here</a> and try configuring your firewall, and if that doesn't work, try disabling your firewall. (If you haven't tried either of those yet. :p)

There are a few things I like about MSN that Trillian doesn't have.

I did disable my firewall at one point and still had the same issue. It was working fine before hand to, just one day I went to change my status to away and it went wonkers ever since.

Thanks for the site though, I'll check it out. *reads*

EDIT: I GOT MSN TO WORK! Thanks you guys. Turns out, after I uninstalled IM Alert/Alarm w/e it was called (by the same company as Zone Alarm) that it decided to work!
