MSN looks the nicest... Yahoo! just sucks, ICQ is too complicated, all i wanna do is chat, MSN is nice, clean and simple, and all my mates have it it is just not too reliable

I have it too, all my friends use it.
Today it's down

Yeah, my messenger's down too. Actually, someone did suggest to me that it might be because todays Independence Day in the US (MSN staff out partying?/drunk?)
I think he might be on to something!

[metamorphosis]

Yeah MSN Is down all the time.........But it is the best outta all...............AIM's just junk, Yahoo! is worse ICQ, Chunky.....

It all depends on peoples needs

that wouldn't be wouter - that's a virus. i've had the same problem, it sends a message to all contacts online asking to accept a file, and when run it sends the file to all their contacts

i just pressed ctrl+alt+delete and found 'choke' running

I can't log in either. I thought it was my network connection ( I share internet over a couple of computers ) but I woulden't be typing this if that was the problem. It probably does have something to do with Independence day. I live in Canada though.

well I tried the microsoft site today to get a download and the site was down, I guess it is all connected.

[hobbi]

microsoft's site is down? that's something i wouldn't expect

I love ICQ!

The only reason i use MSN is cos every one else ditched ICQ...

They think that MSN is faster, well it takes almost the same time to send messages in ICQ, MSN only appears faster since it displays the message despite the other user not getting it all, and later giving a "Message not recieved..." error ; whereas ICQ grays the message box till the message is sent...

*phew*

Well, msn could do better with Offline messaging

[perfectthursday]

yeah i cant get on msn either... guess i'll have to check my email manually... AHHHHH!

ok later

[snoop_doug]

ok they let me on messenger but my contacts have gone

[Sul]

why are all my contacts in msn deleted???!!?!

[djswerve]

we use messenger to communicate with eachother in the office, it goes down like that sometimes, for whole days on end, its nothing to do with your local machine or network, its just the way it is... cant say i've ever lost my contact list though!
