I can't sign in to MSN Messenger. It says my password and/or username is incorrect, or doesn't exist.

I would send them an e-mail, but unfortunately, I can't get into that either.

So does that mean I've lost all my e-mails?? All of my 100 MSN contacts? EVERYTHING!?!?

There is one word for me to say right now: Damn.

Ive had problems with MSN as well! Some times it says it too busy to sign in. Sometimes it wont sign in automaticly, and it wont keep my password! Blame Microsoft 'again'!

no wander ANT;s not been on MSN. duh. i bet hes glad to get away from my ranring.

anyway somebody could have changed your password, was your secret question easy to answer? a mate could have done it as hell have your postcode. ive done it to people myself-you know those dump ppl who dont know a thing about computers and are new to the net.
questions included "whos my best mate", and i knew the answer because its obvious who his best mate is and another guys question was "whos sexy?" and the answer was his own name!
i know it doesnt let u put your name as your answer but he sighned up his account using his nickname so it was possible.

cool! this must be my longest post ever1

Sounds to me like your dad might have reinstalled MSN if your password has been removed from it, either that or he's been using it himself.

My Dad's been playing around with a new CD-ROM today (which, after hours of frustration, still doesn't work,) so I didn't go on the Internet till about 45 mins ago.

Strangely, MSN Messenger didn't sign in automatically like it usually does, and also my password is usually already in there when I go to sign in...it wasn't.

How longs it been going on Ant? If its just been like it today, give it some time. Its happened to me and the key sign is that hotmail is down as well. Its probably their fault and not yours so give it time.

If its been a long time I am stumped me thinks though :'(

Try a password request from another email account like another.com and see if they recognise you that way.

Darn dirty MSN. I've never had that problem nor do I know someone else who has. What you should do though is set up another thread asking for all of their MSN address back for when you set up your new account...

Very weird that, it should be the same as your e-mail password.
