K...My msn has been fine for like a long time..But all of a sudden it started blocking me from even accepting ----in exe file. Just now it blocked a mpeg file!!! WTF. Msn says this file has been blocked cause it is considered unsafe! Grrr..I tried turning off the virus scan in the options..But it wont turn off >_<!! This is the message i get "contact name" tried to send you a file (Marilyn Manson - Saint.mpeg). This file has been blocked because it is potentially unsafe. WTF ----ING ----TY ASS THING *kills it* Im real pissed at this thing atm..So if anyone knows how i can fix this..Ill give u 50 creds, if it works when i try it. Cause i looked in my mcaffe settings..Nothing there..I think msn is just ----ed up. Grrr Help please. Jesse
Gid rid of it and go with Kaspersky, best AV out there. But try disabling McAfee, by like right clicking it in the sys tray and clicking exit?
umm does it have internet secrity, if so check that sonem northons have that had same prob. also if that doesnt work get a host http://www.youshareit.com/index.php good i use it for hosting
K..Its not mcaffe. Its msn. The ----in thing keeps sayin all the files are unsafe Stupid bill gates *kills him* Jesse
Do you have a firewall or something? You'll have to disable it, or check for viruses or spyware. Do you have the XP Service Pack 2? It will block everything that comes into your computer through interenet. So you'll have to approve it, first.
I have no spyware, disabling my Av and FW did not work, no vruses either. I have SP2, but i have approved msn..It was fine till liek just tonight >_< Then it got all screwy >_< It is MSN messenger that is blocking it. It says that it has deemed the particular file unsafe to transfer, cause the file could contain malicuous code or sumthing. Dumbass bill gates >_< Jesse
It always happens in msn, it happens to me very often, I just tell my friends to send me the files one or two times and then the second time it doesnt happen at all... And i dont even have mcafee!
Well try too UNinstall msn and if its the old msn i.e. 6.0 then try upgrading it to 7.0 but if that dont work try other ppl's idea
I have tried getting them to zip the files..Msn says they can contain unsafe files, and blocks the dl....Even if i try like 30 times it dosnt fricken work. And im using msn 7.0 btw.Grr i emailed microsoft..they better fix this lol. Jesse
extension blocking is part of msn its to keep u from getting viruses, but to fix your your problem go here Mess.be and look for mess patch its on the third page of MSN Messenger Addons, Bots, Tools & Tweaks this is a patch that enables a bunch of things and disables a few more u have complete control over what u want and dont want. Nudge protection off, that turns off the time delay were u can nudge again so basically u can nudge like crazy, then theres allow file transfer (what u want) theres plenty more just make sure u get the right version for your msn messenger.
