Here will do..

Its been happening for ages now. It keeps freezing periodically. I have no idea why, and it appears to be random. Anyone else having the same problem?

I cant type, i cant close the windows, everything just freezes thats to do with it.

Help!! :'(

Mine keeps doing that, did it on my laptop last night and keeps doing it on my desktop, Windows doesn't appear to think it isn't responding and after a minute or so it'll unfreeze again... Would like a fix for this :P

EDIT: Been Googling it, give this a go. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;q317843

For me it often doesn't even open. I double-click the MSN icon and it will act as if it's opening an application but then nothing will happen so it just never opens :/

That happens to me too. I have to go into task manager and then processes and end it manually. Then I have to try again and it usually works.

Doesn't work.

Since I have tried that Microsoft fix up in my last post it hasn't frozen once yet.

I'll try it when I'm next on if it works for you. It happened on vista and then I upgraded to W7 with a clean install so uninstalling wouldn't work. Thanks :)

Has this been happening recently? I haven't seen or heard of a new WLM release recently, seems odd for it to suddenly have issues. Although there was something mentioned of Live servers crashing, so it could be a server issue :P

I don't seem to have these problems :S What OS' are you two using? Mine is 7 32-bit if that means anything (like an idiot I didn't read into how effective and stable 64-bit 7 would be :P)
