I'm using microsoft messenger on Mac OS X 10.4.9

whenever I'm signing in the messenger keeps telling me my password is
incorrect

but it's not, I just signed in via Adium in mac and windows messenger
in Win XP

I'm using a US.Robotics as wireless router which is connected to the
adsl modem Speedtouch 510 v4

if it's not a bug in the software, might be a network firewall?

Hi,

Please go to your Applications/Utilities folder and launch the Keychain
Access application and then look at the login keychain.
Look for any entries on the right that have the name Messenger Service and
then delete them.
Now quit Keychain Access.
Restart your computer- this is important.

Launch Messenger and click Sign-in. You should be asked for your password
since we just cleared it out of keychain. If not and it fails, then try to
enter your password choosing not to save. Sign-in.

Please make sure you are entering the exact password that you changed it to,
using correct capitalization, punctuation, etc. Also, make sure your
keyboard language is set to the language your password was created it.

Please let me know if that works.

Thanks,
Rebecca

Hi Repecca,
I couldn't delete them, but I cleared the whole fields, no I'm restarting to
see what happens.

I tried that. But still no use.
