    Me and my friends have noticed that msn has been abit fked up recently.
    • MSN randomly kicks you offline
    • You then slowly sign in only to be kicked off again
    • and again
    • then eventually get signed in as if nothing happened
    this only happenes rarely but is now happening more frequently we have noticed that about 6 or 7 of us are having this problem, anyone else having this problem?


    and btw i did google it

    A serious bug in MSN Messenger was reported to me by Destructivechild creator British Nimrod. Upon changing his intelligent chatbot's email address to the rather lengthy destructivechilddestructivechild.com, he noticed that a lot of people were suddenly knocked offline for an unknown reason. Further investigation revealed that contacts with email addresses of 26 characters or more are causing automatical sign outs on MSN Messenger 6.1 when logging on or changing their nickname. We believe this bug remains until Microsoft modifies the MSN protocol.
    i dunt think there is a solution yet

    My name is 19 letters/digits long (excluding the @hotmail.com bit), and I haven't had any problems with being logged off.

    But I have noticed that when I switch the computer on, MSN doesn't sign-in automatically like I've told it to, so I have to double click the icon in the system tray and press the button saying Sign In. Maybe this is because I have so many other programs which start up when I switch the computer on?
