MSN 7.5
Posted by Max on January 4th, 2006


I had MSN 6.2!!! And it worked GREAT. Then it said I HAD to download the
newer version, and now it wont work. I have all the requirements I think, my
computer is 1 year old, it has Windows XP. When I try to sign into MSN 7.5
it just signs in, then freezes, I can NEVER get to my contact list. I tried
to reinstall 6.2 again, but it just wont work.

Any ideas anyone?

Greetings Max,

You could try removing your client cache. To do so, click Start, then Run, then type:
%appdata%\microsoft
and click OK. Then remove the MSN Messenger folder and then try again.
