    Weird Windows Live Problem.

    Hi Folks,

    Just returned from a weekend of trying to sort my machine performance out with a mate, albeit unsuccessfully!

    It has become apparent that anything 'MSN' is blocked on the machine, when I attempt to get to any part of an msn site I get this.........



    I didn't have this until this afternoon, Connection is fine, all other websites are fine, Whenever I try to sign in to the Live messenger service it says it cannot connect to the service after everything I try, What do I do??



    I can write a book on all the problems I have had with this machine! It wouldn't even install Windows 7 RC, nor will it format the drive, re-load win xp, or even detect that there was an HD!! The Computer thinks that the HD is arranged in RAID Format which I have never requested to do!! The computer appears to be one 'un-fixable' chugging mess that unfortunately I am forced to live with for the next few months.

    It works ok for me. Maybe your CA certs are outdated. Or maybe you can't get a route to verisign for some reason or another.

    Re: Weird Windows Live Problem.

    How do I get a new connection to verisign on this issue? coz until I do, MSN Messenger isn't working and this is a real problem because of some important stuff i need to transfer between contacts.The only messenger style service that does run is SKYPE, I've tried to use Pidgin also but because Msn messenger doesn't work, Pidgin cant log in either.

    Any suggestions?

    I think I may have just solved it (over skype), what he didn't mention below was an error code. "80048820", simple fix... change the time and date to the right ones. The power of google!

    also the fact the error clearly states the certificate isn't valid until dec 08!

    Ah knoeing the problem makes diagnois so much easier.
