Any ideas?
Works ok, but signs me out on a v regular basis.
Running Live Messenger 8.0 with APatch or something like that on it.
Becoming v annoying!

APatch (cant remember exact name) removes all the adverts etc and tidies whole thing up by removing all the excess crap.
Used to work fine on my old PC with 8, have now swapped to new Dell PC, installed MSN and this patch and it keeps signing me out

Yeh on wireless with Tiscali (who I know are crap!)
Internet is working fine, just MSN is playing up.
Also, Firefox takes 3 attempts to load sometimes (have to ctrl,alt,del to shut it down and reload)
Wondering if there's some silly Dell setting running that I'm not aware of

They say that its not good because Microsoft dont get money from ppl clicking on the ads?!
Don't think there's any technical reason why its bad though.
Still keeps signing me out

Think its Tiscali, same happens to me.. only on evenings tho. In their "peak times". (6-11 I think it is).
I am planning on changed as soon as I can be bothered.
