Messenger 2009 continued

Ah, I almost forgot to mention this.

I had gotten a reply from Microsoft, telling me to do bullcrap (check firewall while I said I didn’t have one). Then I replied them I already did all those things. I got another reply asking me to send some logs. I sent those yesterday, but 5 minutes later I figured out the reason myself.

Apparently, my MSN disconnected when a song started in my Foobar2000. Meaning MSN would disconnect when it gets the “Now Playing” data. There was a program sending this, namely, the Last.FM program. I disabled it, and.. it still disconnected. So I had another program sending data to MSN. This was AMIP, a program to send “Now playing” data to IM programs, but mainly mIRC. It also sent data to MSN, and it was slighty outdated on that for MSN 2009. I disabled it and since then it works great. The Last.FM program does the trick for the Now Playing data in MSN w/o crashing. w00t
