Hi. I have used MSN Messenger for some considerable time. However, I keep having a problem where some of my contacts are not seeing me show online, or sometimes they don't receive my messages I send across. I am a little concerned about this. I have had my hotmail account for a considerable length of time, could this be a possible cause, or is it another problem? I use Windows XP, have a broadband connection and run the latest version of Messenger.

I hope someone is able to help me.

Thanks.

Windows XP without any problem. If you have not already done so I would uninstall and reinstall MSN Messenger making sure it is the latest version. Sometimes a file becomes corrupted that a reinstall will correct.

Sorry I have no other solution.
