Posted by: James at July 24, 2004 8:24 AMThat depends entirely on where the new acocunt is, what ISP or service provide you have on both sides, and what email program or programs you're using.
Posted by: Leo at July 24, 2004 9:46 AMLeo.? do you htnk you can help with my question above....? i would realy like to know how taht works
Posted by: Ken at July 26, 2004 10:57 AMThe question is difficult to understand. You want to prevent people from logging in to MSN completely? So that NO ONE can login from that machine?
Posted by: Leo at July 26, 2004 11:05 AMYes Leo...Prevent It Somehow that doesnt make it obvious for the person to notice.... it gives them the error that the internet connectiong has problem or something...
Posted by: Ken at July 28, 2004 12:32 PMLocate your hosts file (normally in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC), and place the following entry in it:
127.0.0.1 passport.com
There may be other hosts involved, but I beleive that's the one that counts.
That will disable the passport service that is used to authenticate MSN users. It'll appear that that web site is down.
Posted by: Leo at July 28, 2004 7:37 PMHey, I use MSN Messanger 6.2 and am getting the error code '1603', I've tried things from other places and none of it gets it to work. I've uninstalled and reinstalled... but still nothing...
Anything would be nice.
Thanx,
