MSN messenger live...Error 80072ee7

[Russyan]

I need some help with fixing msn error message. I am getting this error constantly from last two days. I am using a wireless router at my home. I am having a laptop on which the messenger is installed and it looks to be working fine. I am not able to understand why this error appear. The error code that I am facing is 80072ee7. Does anyone has idea about this thing. Why it appear. Will re-installing msn messenger fix the job.

The error appear because some security application in the background is blocking the connection. It can be a firewall or any other antivirus type application that is causing the failure. It is recommended that you turn the same off and then check back. I am sure this will resolve the problem. Just go in your firewall settings and add the error under exception list. That will do the job. I think that is more than enough. There is no need to re-install the same.

Just try re-installing the same and then check back. I am sure it will work. This kind of error also appear if you are using proxy in your pc. You have to configure the proxy settings properly so that the messenger can access the internet connectivity. I too agree that this is a firewall based issue. It is necessary that you must simply ensure that your security app is not blocking the same. Disable your antivirus or firewall for start and test the same back.
