This issue is an problem exterior of your own system and fundamentally nothing but time. For many time, some users of WLM are having problems connecting to their Windows Live Messenger with the error 85ae001d. Others can not properly display their MSN contact list. This problem connecting Messenger does not seem all key accounts.

I come to the same WLM problem, I connect perfectly on my address and I put the other address. Then go this 85ae001d error code but apparently it must be because they all have the same problem at the same time that strange thing is that it blocks certain address, but not so in my opinion any "wait and see". Please help me over this issue.

It's a server side issue/error and being as it's not inclusive and secluded the Live team is likely not contravention themselves over this error due to priority. If there is any problem in windows live messenger upgradation, then you may get this type of problem which generating 85ae001d error code. Mostly you will get this error while login into the WLM.
