Windows XP >> MSN Messenger cuts out Strange! Hi I posted this on a MSN Messenger group but never had a satisfactory
reply.

I chat with a friend most nights on MSN messenger v7.5. We both have Windows
XP SP2 with the latest updates. I use Blueyonder broadband and my friend
uses UClub/Plusnet ISDN.

When we are chatting using Voice conversation at exactly 01:00 we lose the
connection and I get a pop up that he has ended the conversation and he is
offline. His messenger icon has a red cross on it and on clicking the icon
he gets a message that he is not connected. He then clicks connect and he is
connected then starts an audio conversation and every thing is OK. Now the
strange bit. If I connect remotely with his computer and take charge of it
before 01:00, when he loses the connection I can click on his MSN icon and
sign in to messenger and start a voice conversation with myself from his
computer. All without him doing a thing.

So it would appear that he is not losing his internet connection as I have
control of his computer but something is cancelling his voice conversation
at exactly 01:00. Has anyone any ideas what could cause this? As I said he
is not losing his internet connection nor remote access only the voice
conversation.

Totally baffled Ron

Did you try what MVP Jonathan Kay suggested on 11 Dec-05?

If it didn't help, why didn't you reply to his post and ask for additional
suggestions?

Hi that was a different random problem. Doing what was suggested never made
any difference but it seemed to resolve itself.
This is a new problem. It happens every night at 01:00

Thanks Ron

You said you'd posted about this to MSN Messenger newsgroup. Your thread
from Dec-05 was the only one I could find by you or related to your problem.

Perhaps Jonathan or one of the other MSN Messenger MVPs can lend a hand
here.
