Hi,

Did CPF display any popups about MSN and did you allow them? Can you open CPF>>click the ‘security’ tab>>click ‘application monitor’ tab>>see if msnmsgr.exe is set to allow.

Is there anything blocked in the logs?

Could you also post a screenshot of this?

Thanks,
Mike

It may be something about fragmentation. Lets see. Can ou disable network monitor instead of closing FW and retry?

Thx,

yess.i disabled network monitor and its work.But why i need to disable?

Ok your problem is about ICMP FRAGMENTAION NEEDED messages. What you need to do is simple

ENABLE your Network Monitor and follow the instructions I described in the following post :

After adding the necessary rule, everything should be OK. Otherwise, let us know.

My MSN wouldn’t connect the first time I installed Comodo, but appears to connect most of the time now. The trouble shooter said something about failed ports.

I don’t have this rule, should I still add it, is it only needed at certain traffic levels etc?

YEs. I think you should also add. This rule is made default in 2.3 BETA.

I couldn’t sign in too. And i couldn’t add the rule (Custom becomes ICMP Fragmentation Need) after clicking ok.
