E75: Windows Live Messenger downloaded - Why the Hotmail box

Ok I downloaded Windows Live Messenger onto my phone for free and it works a treat.

 

Only problem is I now have a hotmail box under 'messaging'. I don't use hotmail. My messenger login is not an @hotmail or @windowslive domain (its @xtra.co.nz)

 

How do I get rid of this hotmail box?

 

Its not under the @mail icon either. Frankly I've tried everything to delete it.

It's not nokia that wants the mail box there, it is the developer of that application. It can only be removed by removing the entire application sadly.

 

For using windows live messenger nimbuzz is a better alternative than fring as it supports more features such as smilies and is easier to manage multiple conversations.

Try this

a small suggestion: if you are using the phone memory as the messaging memory,swich it to memory card,install the application then switch the messaging memory aggain to phone memory,so the hotmail box will be hidden

Re: Try this

Sir if you have instructions as to what to do, that would be great. Not entirely sure how to execute your suggestion.

Ok

go to messaging then options then settings then other then memory in use: If it is phone memory, change it to memory card and if it is memory card change it to phone memory,its supposed to ask you copy all messages to new memory press yes Wait a moment (it may take a long time if you have a lot of messages) Now,the hotmail box should be hidden

Re: E75: Windows Live Messenger downloaded - WL Messenger

Hello, i have a problem. I have nokia e75 and i downloaded windos live messenger to my phone. When i am in my home wifi network, then everything is fine, it connects perfectly to windows live messenger, but when i am in school and using school wifi, then for some reasons it won't connect to windws live messenger service. It says windwosw live messenger sign-in failure. I don't think that is because of wifi signal strength, because signal strenght is almost full. Although when using my phone, then there is no problem surfing web, watching youtube videos etc..
Weird thing is that, my laptop connects to windows live messenger service without a problem using school wifi network..
I have latest software for e75
Please could anybody help..
Thank you..
