Miss Moose is getting well rattled as she can't get on MSM to rabbit to her mates. Been like this for the last few weeks apparently. Can't say I've missed it tbh, load of old todge. ::)
I've just tried getting onto my MSM thing that I rarely use tbh, and the same message comes up.
Check your firewall settings, or go to options and check your proxy settings or summat. confused:
Couldn't find this options thing to check the proxy thing, so deleted the whole MSM and tried to down load it again.
Won't have it, and this poxy proxy fault message has come up again, saying it can't load it because of it.
You lot understand this shite, cus I bloody don't. noooo:
Told Miss Moose to write a letter to her mates a instead.
She was generally unimpressed with that suggestion. Shrugs:
-
Can't help I am afraid but tell her to use the facebook chat facility as a temporary work around.

Oh... noooo:
We've lost customers (on our satellite system) cos they couldn't get MSN to werk... nightmare if it doesn't but I have no clues as to why... noooo:

Isn't that a bit dodgy and also shite too? rubschin:

You sayin' I should have satellite dish tv shite then?
Don't understand, but I'll attach this thing to the wheelie bin if that might help....preferably in it. cussing:

Thought I read summat in here many moons ago about it being dodgy, full of weirdos finding out where you live and stuff.
Oh I dunno. It's ALL just shite imo. cussing:
What's wrong with sending an email, letter, or pickin' the bloody phone up ffs?
Hateful. eveilgrin:
We DON'T need this overly complicated crappy chat crap stuff. noooo:

Saves on phonecall costs though. Mother Wench and I use msn webchat as our main form of communication. Facebook is ok, if you treat it with the same degree of caution that you treat any online thing with. Be careful what information you give out, don't friend strangers etc. Failing that google mail also has an integrated chat facility.
The only thing I can think of is that you are aol, they run their own chat facility, think it is called aim, and so quite possibly they will have found a way to stop it working. In the same way as google's browser won't allow you to access hotmail.

You can reply and forward? I should have been more specific, you can view and read, but not reply or forward.

Peculiar. rubschin:

If your firewall is blocking access then adding MSN to the list of accepted programs should solve the problem.

It appears to forward but the mail does not arrive. noooo:

I have just viewed my Hotmail In-box using the Google browser which is standard with Firefox.
I then forwarded a message using Gmail to myself at my business email address (which is not web based) and accessed it via Windows Mail.
No problemo. whistle:
-
Just me then. To be honest, doesn't bother me. I don't use hotmail anymore, it was only when Mr Wench was trying to use my laptop.

That would be the DELL laptop with the installed by DELL software would it? whistle:
-
Thats simple to fix though hound. Fdisk the laptop and then reinstall the Operating system from scratch. No more useless Dell software.

True but you have to then buy the Software. DELL do not give you the installation discs when you buy one of their machines. They give you only a copy of the DELL installation discs licenced to them by M/Soft.
I had one remember and it was sh*te.
When I tried to do what you have suggested I was quoted £159 for the discs (at PC World)
Now I am sure I could (or YOU) could have found them cheaper but when the system is down, completely non-functioning and you don't have the dubious advantage of being able to steal computer time from an employer you have little choice. I elected to bin the DELL and start again with something better.

Technically there is a way around it. While you dont get the software you do get the windows serial number so if you know anyone else with a copy of the same version of Windows use their disks with your number.

Yes but that solution lacked the satisfaction of heaving the DELL into the skip at the council tip. eveilgrin:

I can't really talk seeing as i'm hoping to snag one of the old Dell laptops when the company does its upgrade next year. redface:

I'd have had the dell if they had it in stock. redface:

Only so that she could watch someone else getting annoyed at buying a DELL that she didn't have the nerve to buy herself. Didn't have the colour indeed ~ who ever heard such nonsense?
