I have the same problem from last week with Msn 7.5, some of
my contacts can't see me online.
I tried this link suggested in an old post:
http://www.msngeeks.com/index.php?page=listrebuilder
but it didn't work!
So I have created another account that works fine untill now,
I'll use the new one forever or untill Microsoft fix this problem.
