Not on my 4150, either in PIE or NetFront. I tried using e-messenger.net for awhile, but it always locked up on me after a few minutes. I had better luck using www.msn2go.com, which is java-based, but it's been flaky for the last few weeks.

The web stuff is working well and proper! :-)
Today I get the following response if I try to access the page:

Dear collegues,

the internet connection you are using is administratively forbidden, because of the risk of private use.
It was established only for business use.

Denied by SmartFilter: "sex" and "games"
The proxy's access control configuration denies access to the requested object through this proxy.
Damn no - It's neither about sex nor about games, it's about communication and I have a lot of co-workers and business partners in MSN and therefore it makes sense to allow it. If only company would get it what IM services can provide.

Well, the ability to download files through IM is what kills it where I work. And BTW, trying to use a web based version of the software to get past the "no IM" restriction can get you in deep doo-doo. Where I work they actually realize the importances of IM but they do not like all of the functionality it provides "out of the box". They went ahead and created their own IM software that allows employees to IM between each other, and more importantly (if you can prove a business need) will allow you to IM to any other IM client (AOL, Yahoo, MSN, etc)...

It's actually a pretty cool app!

Steve

Okay, maybe this isn't really "off-topic," but Carlo Guerrero at PPCW.Net has this "public service announcement" about a new way to use MSN Messenger:



"This news has been going around for a while now. But finally we can all try out MSN Web Messenger. I went to the website after seeing Paul of MoDaCo sporting a new MSN Messenger icon. So what is MSN Web e-messenger? This is what the MSN Web Messenger homepage had to say about it.

"MSN Web Messenger lets you talk online and in real-time with friends and family using just a web browser! Use it on any shared computer - at school, at work, at a friend's house or anywhere you can't install the MSN Messenger software."


This could be pretty handy at times when you're using a shared PC, like at school or at conferences. You still need a Passport (or reasonable facsimile), but at least this lets you send messages with a PC that doesn't have the regular client software installed. Carlo does a really great job describing how this version of Messenger works, and his article at PPCW.Net has plenty of screen shots.

Maybe somebody can answer a question about this, though. I know that some businesses do not allow or block the use of regular messaging clients, like MSN Messenger, AOL Instant Messenger or Yahoo! Messenger. Wouldn't this Web-based version allow employees to sidestep those blocks?
yes you are really messenger is very important to us......
