    I have this issue,

    Maybe you can help

    Ok -you know when someone adds you that box appears on the top of your screen telling or asking rather if you would like to accept that person,

    well, on my laptop and one pc that works , BUT on my other pc which is windows xp as well, that box never appears and even when I add them manually it shows them offline when they really are online, but its this one pc only

    I have tryed reinstalling messenger like 4 times and no luck

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Do they appear online if you use Web Messenger?
    webmessenger.msn.com

    Also is it the same account on each computer or all different? And does everyone in the list appear offline? Can they start a conversation?

    Ok -

    Yes same account on very pc

    They are online , cause I can talk to them on 2 of the pcs, but the third pc is the one

    The laptop and my hp tower work fine

    The computer it doesnt work on is also the one that has a bare windows xp system running

    What I mean by that is I just build a custom pc, and bough the windows software from the box

    Thats the one that doesnt work
