My entire wireless network is losing connectivity when I run MSN Messenger. It didn't do this until a few days ago. It actually stopped and was fine, I'd called my cable company thinking that it was there fault. But today I realized it only disconnects when I connect MSN Messenger. It will turn on, and then my little icon shows the yellow hazard box, and I realize that everyone has been kicked offline until I redo the power on the cable modem/router. Is there anything I can do to fix this? I have a new laptop with Vista on it, which I am unfamiliar with. But for about a month there was no problems. Thank you for any help!

If you are running the new version of windows live try this older one. Windows Live Messenger 8.1.0178 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/... This version still works and might fix your problem. I don't know what else to tell you.

MSN should not in normal circumstances cause your router to have problems. Not sure using an older version would help unless you updated it 3 days ago. Is your router a smc? Playing to the angels Les Paul (1915-2009)
