Msn

Hi

I am having problems with MSN. When I try to sign in MSN shows me this error:

Corently you cen not sign into Windows Live Messenger. Try again later.
Error code: 80072efd

Does someone know what this might be?

You have a problem with your firewall blocking MSN or Microsoft Live Messenger or Hotmail connection... or a problem with the NET framework.
Often this is caused if you are using the newer versions of Norton or Symantec Security Suite or firewall.
You need to look at your permissions and settings.

You have to manually unblock it or turn off the firewall... giving the firewall notice that MSN is to be allowed, along with Hotmail, and Microsoft messenger. You need to do some reading of sites related to IE 7 and firewalls.

Edited for clearity...

Have you forgotten your login name and password? Do you get any error messages? If so, what are they?
