I dont know why I am not able to log into Windows Live Messenger, does it happens for anyone else? Can anyone help me out? Thanks.

Even I am getting the same issue and I am not able to log into Windows Live Messenger, or Msn web messenger. I am also getting the below error messages:
"Signing in to Windows Live Messenger failed because the service is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later. Error code: 81000314."

Even I am still facing this issue, others who I normally chat with on IM are also having the same issue. We are getting a error code 81000314 saying the same unavailble but yet when we check the service status it says that all systems are up and running.

If I am using media center then I get a message at Media centers' start-up that it can't open "messenger" - I've had this problem for a couple months. I can open messenger separately but since it's a feature of Windows' MCE 2005, I noticed this problem shortly after my computer caught an automatic update of "service pack-3" does anyone have any ideas how to resolve this issue?

I have also tried reinstalling Windows Live Messenger but still getting the same error message.
