i hate microsoft crap...since this msn 6.1 POS, i cannot sign into it at all (no versions)...it seems to think im not connected to the net.


Its also screwed up music match jukebox...it cant connect to cddb, so i gotta type out the track names :rolleyes:

MSN sucks, use Trillian
Music Match sucks, use Winamp 2.91.. (or CDex if you're ripping cd's?)

FIXED!!!

had myself all set up to format...burnt about 20 cd's of stuff...

I have Zone alarm on my comp, but it was screwing with internet explorer, so i set it not to run. Just opened it up, and now msn works!

also, the new versions of AIM disable things msn messenger needs without asking you.
