    MSN messenger randomly dropping out

    Hi

    Just wondering whether any other MSN messenger users using 8 are having a problem with it randomly losing the connection and having to reconnect (ADSL connection is stable) or is it a peering issue I need to take up with my ISP.

    Am using the standard Vista firewall which I havent touched since I installed.

    Cheers

    Im having same problems on XP PRO, it was after the update to latest. So i re-installed older version and no problems so far.

    You could try scanning for Malware, just try some of the usual scanner's (Virus,AdAware,Spybot.)

    Post back if you need further help.
