Yes. Firewalls can block internet access to applications that are dissallowed, or applications that have not asked for permission to use the internet.

Alright people its your lucky day, I “think” I have found a solution to all this MSN problem.. first uninstall everything…. then
type regedit in start/runclick
click on HKey_current_user
find softwares click the +
find MSN Messenger
click once and delete it
then exit out of that and do it again.. (for me it kept appearing)
check if it appears again

then get zonealarm (free) at :

Install it restart if you have to.. run it.. then install MSN and run msn.. if it asks, let MSN or something like that, to run click yes…

Hope this works… it did for me..
feedbacks would be nice..

😀 hey I had a huge prob wid 0x81000301, but I fixed it. I tried uninstalling it and other great ideas from this site but I cudn’t fix it. and here it is the solution to my problems…………go into norton personal firewall, click on personal firewall, on the right it should give you two options 1. turn off or 2. configure, pick 2 configure. select the program control. On this page you should be able to access the blocking manually. scroll down to MsmMsgr.exe. select it then click on modify. change it from blockd to permit and press ok. this worked for me. such a simple thing I hope this helps alot of you guys, I know how frustratin 😡 it is

HI guys!
I encountered the same promlem {error 0x81000301} and neither of the tips above helped me solving the problem…..after questioning Microsoft Database, I find out that the problem is with Winsock…..instead of installing the OS all over again I found a tools which fix the problem on my OS {WinXP} and it is called WinsockXPFix.exe, I searched it on the Internet (Google is great) download it to an isolate zone on my Hard drive, check virus clean and run it….SOLVED MY PROBLEM!!!
Please let me know if it solves your’s

i have found a way to get it working… if you have ever had zone alarm
installed on your computer even after uninstalation the file vsmon.exe still remains in the windows system32 folder this application stops MSN messenger from conecting to the internet so what you need to do is delete the file vsmon.exe

The directory is c:/windows/system32/zone labs
delete the entire Zone Labs folder

I fixed my problem by going to C:documentsandsettingsallusersstartmenuprograms and found that both the old icon for launching Windows Messenger and the new MSN Messenger 6.2 icon were still there. I deleted the old icon and clicked on the MSN Messenger 6.2 and it signed me in immediately. Good luck.

I too am having this error. It gives me the error code 0x81000301. It somehow effects both Windows Messenger as well as MSN messenger but does not effect my Hotmail account accessed by Outlook express. I have tried uninstalling both Msn messenger and windows messenger, as well as deleted all registry entries in relevance along with removed all records of it in my firewalls and still nothing. It was working fine two nights ago, and now suddening, it doesn’t. If anyone comes up with the solution that WORKS, I would greatly appreciate it if you could spread the word. I have noticed that this occurance seems to be effecting a lot of weary computer users. Any help is greatly appreciated.
