Re: MSN Messenger in one PC and WIndows Messenger in another

Greetings Mandi,

This is behind the same network right? If so, the router itself might be trying to translate
the requests to external IPs stopping this from working properly (this is more known on the
Windows Messenger side, as router companies were targeting that version of the protocol).
Using MSN Messenger in both should get around that.
