Try this:

Go to Messenger | Tools | Options | Connection | Advanced Settings. Remove
all checks from the four boxes. Sign out of Messenger. Exit Messenger. Then
start Messenger again. If that doesn't work, reboot and allow it to try auto
sign in.

Greetings Anel,

This is a known issue with some configurations (when you have a router or firewall setup
which is blocking specific requests from Messenger). You may want to downgrade to one of the
beta releases:

or use 6.2 instead:
