.::About connecting to MSN behind a Firewall::.
Most corporate computer systems and some home computers have a firewall to prevent outsiders from accessing the system. For security, computers that connect to the Internet through broadband technology (for example, cable or DSL) should have a firewall :biggrin:
MSN Messenger will first attempt to connect directly so that you can use all of the MSN Messenger features. If MSN Messenger cannot connect directly, it will use the same HTTP connection that your default browser uses to connect to the Internet :biggrin:
To find out what kind of connection you have, in the main MSN Messenger window, click the Tools menu, and then click Options. Click the Connection tab :turn:
::Note::
If MSN Messenger uses your browser connection, you'll be able to send instant messages but some features of MSN Messenger (such as placing calls and sending files) might not be available :biggrin:
