Memberum my freind has a problem where her entire msn contact list has dissapeared. people can see her but she cant see them, and occasionally a random contact will add itself, otherwise when they add her they just come back normally. the thang is, her contact list is quite large, and for everyone to re-add her would be a very arduose task. thankgs for reading and any help is much appreciated.

KeymasterI’m guessing your friend may have been effected by the recent problem, as reported from the MSN Messenger web site:
Quote:quote:During November 21-23, 2002 the .NET Messenger Service experienced a file corruption problem that damaged a small number of customer files. Most of the effected files have been restored to their original content, however, there are some files that were created or changed during November 21-23, 2002 that can not be recovered. If your file was damaged, you may have logged into MSN Messenger or Windows Messenger and noticed an empty contact list or missing contacts from your list. The .NET Messenger Service has attempted to repair your contact list by sending you an Add Contact request for all of the contacts on your contact list. If you have not recovered your entire contact list, you can also use the Add Contact wizard to manually add contacts back to your contact list. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.December 20, 2002 at 3:27 pm #99127OpTiMiSt
