Hi there, I went online 2 nights ago and a box popped up
on my screen even before I signed into MSN saying I had
to update my messenger before I could move on, so I
clicked ok. I downloaded the newest version of messenger,
and after that my computer rebooted and now I can't sign
into messenger. It keeps telling me that my password is
incorrect or net.passport might be down....Can you please
help me? I'm not very computer literate, but I need
messenger so I can keep in touch with my distant family.

Thanks,
Robyn

Hi there, I'm having exactly the same problem since 2 days ago....it all
started with the same prompt to update the messenger & I also have
4.7.3001.....every time I try to sing in I receive the following message:
"signing in to .NET Messenger Service failed because the service could not be
found. Please make sure you are connected to the internet"..............I
also have tried my .NET password (for example at this chat) and it is ok.
SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP US!!!

that no one at MS has figured this thing out yet???
