I have a very wierd problem! I can send files over msn to everybody exept one person. And the strange thing is that she can recive files from everbody exept me! She can send files to me without any problems. We both has routers from netgear with the ports 6891-6900 open. The error message says "Sending of "blabla.bla" to blabla has failed.". It takes less than half a sec between the acepting of the file and the error message. Please help me!

Weird....not sure on what it could be. Have you tried sending files to anyone else?? If you cant send a file to ppl maybe you have a firewall that is stopping the transfer or something. maybes its your connection.

I can send files to everyone exept her! And we both have firewalls with the right ports open. Maybe it is a firewall problem but I cant understand what's wrong! And usually when there is a firewall problem it has a long error message and it takes more time before msn cancel the transfer!

I find this weird too, but just to work with something... why don´t you open a command prompt and run "netstat" when you are trying to send a file to your friend?. Perhaps a different port is being used (who knows why!, but I want to rule out this possibility) and so you must enable that port in your firewall.
