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.

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.
