Aaron Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 Are you using a router? If you are then you need to allow specific ports that the messenger uses for sending files across. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LS_Dragons Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 Check out this article on ms.com It may be that your DSL modem or service provider could be implementing your service through some form of NAT service. Worth checking into anyway.....h*tp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/techinfo/deployment/natfw/default.aspLet us know if this answers....LS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote:75a5b2832e]Aaron, the reason that i suggested that he use trillian, was due to the fact that i misunderstood his post. I thought that he said the problem was occuring with aim/msn yet not with trillian. So you see, theres nothing to get p***ed about -drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LS_Dragons Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 But - did you check out the NAT issue I posted about. Apparently, with WinXP and UPnP - this makes a big difference. You indicated that you could send/receive files BEFORE you installed XP. I think you should checkthis outLS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renakuajo Posted January 26, 2002 Author Share Posted January 26, 2002 i read the article but so far nothing....yes before xp i was able to send files, but after xp i was able to send files if the other user doesnt have xp as Os.....if i try to send or received files w/some that has xp as OS xp dont let me......now it happens w/everybody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conan Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 Check if the built-in Windows Firewall is enabled. It might be blocking the communication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Booger Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 Upgrade trillian to the newest version available. Second, contact your ISP and see if they are blocking anything on their end, with regards to ports etc... YOu can do this by contacting their technical support. Another thing you can try is using HTTP TUNNEL WITH trillian. HTTP tunnel allows you to run internet applications over the port 80 (http port), which might cure your problem. Another thing to do is delete zonealarm from your system completely. Try black ice defender, or go the hardware route if you really must use a firewall. MAKE COMPLETELY SURE YOU have administrator Privileges. In otherwords, use TWEAK UI, go down to accounts and check the box that says show log on as administrator. Then log on as the administrator my hitting startlog off then select administratoror To log on as the AdministratorIn “Log On to Windows,” type Administrator and the password you assigned to the administrator during Setup. Click OK. If a message appears informing you that the system could not log you on, verify that CAPS LOCK is not turned on, and then retype your password. IMPORTANT Running Windows XP as an administrator makes the system vulnerable to unnecessary security risks. Instead, use your user account to perform routine tasks such as running programs, working on documents, and visiting Internet sites.Or YOu can make sure the administrator by going to start/control panel/user accounts and make sure you are the administrator!Big BoogerOther than that, I dont know what else to I can offer at this time. Contact TRILLIAN/MICROSOFT/YOUR PROVIDER etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
