Hope you can help, Im on the verge of burning my laptop

When I use MSN/Yahoo/my space messenger service, I am continually signed in and out, it happens every couple of minutes :rant: its driving me nuts.

Nothing is wrong with my broadband connection, any ideas?

I had this when my cookies were disabled for messenger - if you go to Tools, Internet Options, and either adjust the privacy setting or use the edit button to add messenger as a trusted site - then I could log back in !

without wishing to use the usual cliche IT bods use when they're out of ideas, have you tried reinstalling it?
and make sure it's the latest version

There was a thread earlier today saying there was a problem.

I have just tried to log in as a test and I can't.
