Hello there is right, I also wondered about that. I think we're just going through the possibilities here. Have you clicked on the sound button as I said. It should give you your sound level settings etc. You could also run the sound wizard in the tools dialogue and check that out. Also what happens if the firewall is turned off? Just one final thought, where did you install MSN Messenger e,g, which folder and drive or did you install from the download site?
