    my msn homepage and messenger crash quite a bit but it goes in spurts for me. it will be fine for a month or two then it will be nothing but headaches for a couple days then it is fine again.i have no idea what it is either.

    Same here, cept it's more a couple days, then it will crash a million times in one hour, then nothing for another few days.

    Works ok for me apart from the odd occasion when MS servers are proberbly under load or their are network issues and I get random cut offs... but never had it crash!


    Define crash... any errors etc etc.... plus are you using latest version?

    I'm with Halo.

    Never a crash, occasional droppage.

    But I have occasional droppage with Trillian too.

    And I abuse my computer software.

    define "proberbly" :p.. any way. MSN runs ads on the messenger. Do you have any 3rd party items installed that directly affect MSN messenger and AD's ?

    definition..........
    Most likely; presumably


    I was presuming ;)



    also if I remember Trillian uses MS MSN servers awell so dropouts on Trillian will happen aswell.

    oh you mean.. PROBABLY :p..

    he didn't mention the use of trillian.. but dropping out is not the same as crashing..

    YES.. Proberbly ( had to look 3 times to see if I spelt it wrong or somethink )


    Yep sorry I was sort of replying to Adrynalyne and him using Trillian and experiencing dropouts!


    Yes I know thats why my first post says I've had dropouts/cutoffs but never a crash... so thats why I asked "Define crash"


    stop picking on me I'm tired and its been a shitty day in work... :) ;)

    Max.. What OS are you running.. if 2k/XP have you checked your event manager to see if it logged an error?

    Remember

    Remember having problems with Trillian "crashing" and their support team told me to install it elsewhere (than Program Files) on my PC and it worked just fine afterwards.
    Would something like this be possible for MSN ?

    Oh yea, I'm running 2k and 98 but its crashed on both. By crash I mean, close with an error "MSN, blah blah blah, would you like to send an error report to microsoft..."
