Why is Windows Live Messenger Plus not working?

My Windows Live Messenger hasn't been working. Why is that?

  • When I try to sign in it says "Signing in to Windows Live Messenger failed because the service is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later." The error code is: 800488fe. I've tried closing the process in the program manager, rebooting the computer, trying a different username and even re-installing the messenger. Is anyone else having this problem? If not, any ideas on how to solve it? Thanks.

  • Answer:

    " If you see error 800488fe or 800488fb when you try to sign in to Messenger, your account is being blocked because we detected an unusual amount of activity with it. To access your account again, sign in with your Windows Live ID account on the sign-in page, and then follow the instructions on the screen. If you forgot your password, go to the password reset page to set a new password.
