Default offline when online


That a possibility, but not in this case. The other party
is someone I work with and needs to contact me as badly
as I need him.

I'm wondering if it might have something to do with
Passport and .NET.

Default Re: offline when online

Can you verify that the person has you on their allow list? They need to go
to Tools->Options, select the privacy tab and make sure that you are on the
Allow List.
