Why isn't Windows Live Messenger (MSN) working?

Question

I use use my Yahoo! Email to log onto Windows Live Messenger (MSN) and it's been working fine for a few months. When I log in now it says "We can't sign you in to Windows Live Messenger: Signing into Windows Live Messenger failed because the service is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later." I've tried reinstalling it but it didn't work. The Error Code is 80070005. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Answer 1

download the new version of MSN. it worked for mee:)

Answer 2

Try clicking on server status. That might let you know if the server is done for a bit. Do you have the latest version of Windows Live Messenger installed on your computer? If not I strongly recommend to do so. As this has resolved the issue for myself in the past. Also, make sure your username and password are correct.

--Hope this helps and I hope this will be your best answer. :)
