This is not, and i repeat not another "HELP!!! my msn doesn't work" problem.
This is the scenario; I have about 120 users, win xp mostly, and a server running Windows Server 2003. Lately, for some reason, msn just stopped working. Thinking it was their usual downtime i ignored the complaints. But after about 1 month of constant downtime I was convinced to look into it. After some simple tests i can outrule the MSN servers involvement. When i connect my laptop directly to the internet, past everything else (firewall etc.) I can connect fine. But as soon as im behind the firewall I get nothing. I used Sysinternals TCPView to see if they hade changed ports for msn but its still 1863, opened that and still nothing... I tried opening all ports from inside to outside in the firewall, but i still get nothing. This is very wierd. The problem doesn't seem to be the firewall nither... So anyone got i clue?
It's the same problem on all client computers...
