Sister in law had many many Spyware, but has removed using the new Microsoft
program, she cannot get MSN Messenger to connect, she downloaded the
mandatory version, it will come up on the screen but will not connect to
allow a connection with another party.

She is in Oak Ridge, I am on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, so cannot set at
computer to help.


Any ideas or Help!!

Run better spyware removal tools. Get Spybot Search and Destroy.

If it still won't work, uninstall and reinstall messenger.

Failing that do a REPAIR installation of XP.

Make sure the PC is free of any Viruses, Worms or Spyware before installing
any applications.
 
Hey Joel,

Is it limited to just Messenger, or does other things (web browser et al) not work either?
More importantly, can she get to secure sites (https://)?

Jonathan, all other stuff works; however, do not know about "secure sites"
or do I even know of one. However, do know that all else works.
