When I try to send a file with Windows Messenger v.4.7.3000, I get the following
message:
"Sending of 'DG.jpg' to John Doe has failed."
This message appears on the receiving computer:
"This file could not be sent because the connection is blocked. A firewall
running on your computer or on the network may be the cause. Contact your
network administrator or Internet service provider."
Both computers are running WinXP Home with SP2 installed. The XP firewall is
turned OFF on both and there are no other software firewalls installed!
Although each computer is attached to a router, files were being sent freely
with the same setup prior to SP2. In fact, SP2 is the only change on either
computer.
I've tried sending files between two computers on my own network and get the
same messages.
Anybody have any ideas?
TIA!
