    Sending files over MSN

    Since I downloaded the new MSN Messenger, I havent been able to send of receive files over it. It says it wont accept it as it could be a security breach. :confused: Ive un-installed it and tried again, but same happens. Cant find anything on the FAQ either :( Help?

    May be windows firewall or your virus software blocking it? May have to allow traffic through the ports but not sure which ports v7 uses for transfering files
