Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Hi lads, when I click on someone's MSN link in their profile to add them to my MSN I get this message :
    "The MSN/Windows Messenger/Live Messenger functions only work when launched from Internet Explorer on a system with the Messenger application configured and running."



    Now, I've got my MSN open and I'm signed in but I still get that message. Any tips on how to configure this to work ?

    Cheers for any help.

    If you go to tools>options>security, the last tickbox says "open windows live messenger when I click a link on a webpage that tries to interact with windows live messenger"

    maybe try clicking that see if it makes a difference?

    Nope, that box was clicked. I unchecked it, shut down MSN and reopened it and clicked it again and I'm still getting that message.
