OK, I'm getting narked! It's 4.20pm I'm using AOL 8 and running Kazaa Lite and MSN Messenger 6 on 56Kbps modem. Messenger wont sign in for some reason and I think it's because of Kazaa Lite...the only way I get messenger to work is to completely sign off AOL, reopen it, sign in again +messenger signs me in...for about 5 mins. In the mean time, Kazaa, instead of just starting where it was last downloading, completely restarts all my downloads Anyone else having some similar problems? Have tried to sign back several times:
1st time it says, problem with connection
2nd time it says, sign in name does not exist blah blah (lies all lies!)

OK, have concluded, Kazaa lite IS the problem. If you wanna use MSN messenger 6, you can't use Kazaa lite (**** you!) You have to choose

Why doesn't that suprise me?

[Doggie]

especially if one downloads in kazaa lite while trying to sign in

I never use both at the same time, so I don't have to worry as much...

i DO use msn and kazaa lite at the same time (in fact im using at mo) en i dun get any kind of that problems, maybe just a coincidence cuz MS MSN services have been very crappy last weeks

[beccatigger]

No no, it's defo no coincidence because when I exit Kazaa Lite, Messenger merrily signs me back in again....grrrr but you are right, it has been a bit temperamental(?) anyway

[malukitojr]

are you behind any sort of firewall or something like that?? there's another possibility...ur connection may not support so many things connected @ the same time...

[beccatigger]

nope, not @ all! I've never had a problem with it before....It's since I've been using 6. I've changed and using WinMX now anyway, no spyware (Lite still has some spyware in it)

hey,


im pretty sure that it is a bandwidth problem.

i have a 512 account and when im downloading at max speed messanger wont sign in.

but, if i start messanger before downloading then it works fine.

hope that helps

Yeah it's defo a bandwidth problem. I used to have the same problem wih KazaaLite and MSN when I was on 56K but it will connect OK with Kazaa running now Im on ADSL.
The only way round it is to pause your d/l's in Kazaa while you sign in then start em up again when youre in.

[beccatigger]

yeah but it chucks me off after bout 5 mins
