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



Hi,

You'll see this because MSN Messenger has far better support for non-UPnP routers and it's
still using a protocol which is compatible with Windows Messenger so it works.

If you send out an invitation with Windows Messenger and don't have a UPnP router, it simply
will not work period.
