tried this. I thought it was fixed. now i am on messenger and can see contacts but still can’t access mail. the 800 phone number is getting us no where, they are not helpful any other idea???? i am not access my mail so i hope the answer is published
wow, so i feel sorta stupid, my son suggested not using my linksys router and yep all works fine!!!!!! not sure if this will help any one.why it would start blocking messenger i am not sure after all these years with it.
Try updating the firmware and reset it to factory settings.
Still doesn’t work… I did that and still get the same error message but now it starts to say ”There might be a problem with your internet connection. Make sure your computer is connected to the interenet.” And it is. Oh, and the Proxy server thing is unticked.. Help, please? Help would be greatly appreciated. I really need to contact someone. Oh, and can you publish the answer if you do so happen to reply? Like rochelle’s problem, I can’t also get access to my E-mail, sadly… ~Reno.
If it is your email as well and you can use internet explorer then it is probably a firewall issue
or maybe a virus problem.
