Hi! all

I'm on a lan connection with an especific ip and i can access to internet by typing the id name and password on the internet browser, but i can't access to msn messenger. I have already tried to select a proxy. i have inserted my proxy and nothing, i have inserted the server proxy , and nothing either? is it the port?
What do i need to do to access msn ? my internet browser has http server option on.
PLEASE HELP, and ANSWER!

THANKS!

Please do not double post. Post your question in one category only

Yes, it could be that the port for IM is blocked. If you are in a company, they may block the IM ports.
