MSN Content Plus

Remove MSN Content Plus Register Alert.

Your current time trial is expired. Please register or uninstall all products of MSN Content Plus.

To remove this message, you have to delete the following files;

msnlogs.exe and msnlogm.exe from the Windows folder.

The best way to do this is in safe mode and then use the MS-DOS prompt to delete them.

How to Start Up in Safe Mode

Restart your computer (click the Start button on taskbar, choose Shut Down, then select Restart).

When the screen appears black and the computer begins to start up, press the F8 key repeatedly (about once a second). A black screen with white text will appear and with start up options. Note: If the Microsoft Windows image with the Windows symbol appears, then you have passed the point to start up in safe mode. Repeat the steps to restart your computer and try again.

The default option is Start Windows Normally. To start up in safe mode, use the arrow keys on the keyboard and highlight Safe Mode, then press Enter. (Do not choose Safe Mode with Networking if you believe you have spyware or a virus.)

Depending on the version of Windows you are running, the system may ask you to select an operating system. Chose the operating system you wish to troubleshoot (most will have just one option, Windows XP Professional, for example). The system will continue the start up process.

If your computer is password protected, you will be required to log in. You must log in with an account that has administrator access.

A message box will appear and ask if you would like to proceed working in safe mode. Click Yes to continue.

To verify that you are in safe mode, look at the corners of the main desktop screen. The words Safe Mode should be in the corners of the desktop.

MSN contact list is full

When trying to add a new contact to your list MSN Messenger tells you that your contact list is full.

MSN Messenger currently has a limit of 150 contacts. If you have 150 contacts in your list there is simply no way to add more new contacts. This amount might be increased in the future. In march it was increased from 100 to 150.
If you have an amount of contacts that is below the maximum amount and yet, you are not able to add a new one, this is most likely a server side issue that may show up after adding and deleting contacts for some time. Usually, this problem fixes itself after some time.
When you really need over 150 contacts or are not able to add new contacts the only thing you can do for now is to create one or more extra MSN Messenger accounts. Using a so called "polygamy patch" or a client like Trillian you can be signed in with more then one account at the same time.

"Sign me in automatically" checkbox is missing in MSN Messenger

The "Sign me in automatically" checkbox is missing and you have to retype your username and password each time to get online in MSN Messenger. This is probably caused by a security setting which does not permit storing passwords on your computer. If you have sufficient rights (you are an administrator) on your computer you can reset this setting by running this file.

"Here was a problem connecting you to MSN Messenger"; Error 81000370

This error is usually caused by the security parts in MSN Messenger not working correctly

Solution:

First, try the following: click start, then on run. Type: regsvr32 softpub.dll and press enter.
If MSN Messenger does not work yet after this, you can try closing Messenger then go to www.passport.net with Internet Explorer (also if you normally use another FireFox) then click on the sign in button, you may get a certificate dialog. Accept the certificate, now if you start MSN Messenger it should work.

If you did not get the certificate dialog and MSN Messenger still does not work, open the advanced settings dialog in Internet Explorer by clicking on the Tools - Internet options menu and then go to the advanced tab. Go down to the security section and make sure use SSL 2.0 and use SSL 3.0 are both checked.

Msn Messenger Plus It's a Virus

Msn-9.0plus.exe -- It's A Virus!

There's been a lot of virii floating around the MSN Messenger Network lately. Some of them include links that pop up saying things like;

Hej, did you download the new MSN yet?
lol check out MSN Plus...it ownz!
Automessage : Download MSN Plus:
lol, this is awsome...
Want more msn emotions?
MSN 8.0 Beta released....get it here

Never click on these links when someone sends you one. The typical result is a virus infection. In the case of the links above the result is a W32/Antix-A infection

I cannot sign into MSN messenger

WLM isn't getting connected?


There are few tips how to fix the problem:

ExplanationIssues which all boiled down to the same cause:- Attempting to login but all you get is eternally spinning buddies- Login works but you can't add contacts- Login works but you don't get any contacts- Error codes when signing in (for example 81000314)Cause of problems:
An outage in one of the data centers which prevented some people from updating or accessing their contacts.This has been fixed, but contacts added during this outage will unfortunatly be lost and need to be added again.

Some back end systems had trouble with the handshaking (technicial term to indicate the communication protocol between systems): Messenger was trying to send a request for the contact list and the response it was getting was't what was expected due to modifications on other back end systems.

To fix this you need to delete the cache of this handshake policy. Once this cache is deleted a new and fixed handshake can take place and the errors will be gone.FixDelete you handshaking policy cache:

Exit Messenger completely (this means right clicking the Messenger tray icon and choosing Exit).

Open your registry editor (Start > Run > regedit.exe) and navigate to: for Messenger 8.0: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger for Messenger 8.1: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\WindowsLive\CommunicationsClient

Once there, you must remove the following subkeys: for Messenger 8.0: Policies for Messenger 8.1: Shared
Close your registry editor and restart Messenger.Make sure you don't delete or modify anything else. Wrong alterations can cause serious problems for Windows.

For those who are not comfortable editing the registry, I've made a registry file which will do these alterations for you. Simply download the file, save it and run it:
