    if you have not changed anything like log-ins etc
    the this error typically means the server is down for your login.
    their fault not yours.

    there are 'fixes' if you type in the error code at a search engine, but, typically i'd wait 24hrs before you do anything.
    as long as your internet is working of-course!

    download and run Ccleaner

    http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/

    [right green box at top]

    after you run it from the front screen

    click tools on the left menu
    and run registry cleaner.

    comeback here

    My niece recently had the same problem, she could not sign into msn via the client, however other people signed in with no problem.

    I went through the registry and deleted any references to her msn login. Once completed I rebooted and tried her login, worked perfectly.

    If you are unsure about making changes to the windows registry please get a professional to do this as you could make the computer unusable.

    can you log on to that pc as a diff user?
    or create a new user of your PC.

    does it work using a diff pc user login but with your windows live log-in?

    need to find out if its the PC or settings under your log-in to the pc.

    try a diff user account to log in to your pc
    then see if windows live works for that new user using your normal windows live log-in

    i need to know if it 'you' that just has the trouble on the PC
    or every user on your pc no matter what log-in you use to acces the PC and/or windows live.

    use tools under ccleaner
    and uninstall all the windows live bits
    that are listed

    then do a cold boot
    [shutdown then normal start]

    then re download & re install windows live.
