Hi, You'll need to get a passport account. I believe messenger will prompt you to do this if you don't already have one. The process is pretty accessible the only thing is the captia issue, but MS uses a audio solution so you should nt have much trouble ======= Visit my webpage at www.blind-geek-zone.net "The chief handicap of the blind is not blindness, but the attitude of seeing people towards them." - Helen Keller, 1925 ----- Original Message ----- From: John Ramsey To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, November 27, 2006 6:20 PM Subject: Windows Messenger Hello, I don't want to sound like a complete moron, however, I need to know how to set up a windows messenger account and also need to know how accessible the procedure is with JFW. Take care, John
