Hmm.. if you can't send to your own PC it sounds like it's being blocked at the PC, thus
meaning there is some piece of software that's blocking the connection, even to your own PC.
To be fair, file transfer has never been of Messenger's strong points (although MSN Messenger
5 had things done pretty well) but it sure sounds from your evidence that things are being
blocked on the PC.
