Hi Guys,
Earlier this week my MSN messenger ( versions 6 and version 5 ) were working fine, I use the free version of msn explorer as my browser. So today i try to login but it wont login on msn explorer ( just keeps going attempt 2 ,3 etc.) and on MSN messenger I get the password incorrect message.. I cant login to hotmail either as i go to http://www.hotmail.com loging using my email and password and it just says page cannot be displayed ( using internet explorer ). I was wondering whats up as i have installed MSN messenger 6 a few times and i have tried reinstalling MSN messenger and it still doesnt work:(. – Sorry if this i a bit n00bish , i am the ultimate n00b 😛
I am running Windows XP Pro with updates and service packs and internet explorer version 6
Thanks for any help
Chris
Since the problem cropped up across the board (effecting MSN, Messenger and Hotmail), I’m wondering if there was a temporary problem with either MSN or your ISP.
If the problem hasn’t disappeared, request your password be emailed to you, just to verify that your using the one one MSN thinks you should be using. 😉
Well, it just looks like you have the EXACT SAME problem that I posted here WAAY back in October. (You can read my post if ya like)

Um, did you find a solution?
I experienced the same problems:
1. hotmail – get “cannot display page”
2. msn messenger ver. 6.1 – get “password incorrect”
3. msn explorer – get attemps 1,2,3 and then times outI searched the internet and found somebody suggesting to re-register a dll as follows:
START> RUN> regsvr32 softpub.dll
Then click “Ok”I tried this, rebooted my computer (laptop with Windos XP SP1) and the my above 3 problems disappeared.
Try re-registering the softpub.dll and see if this will help fix your problems.
