1. Start -> Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs -> Add/Remove Windows Components
3. Go to Networking and click details
2. Tick the “Peer-to-Peer service” option and the “UPnP User Interface” option.
4. Click OK to get out of those dialogs, Windows will install some stuff for a minute or two, then try sending a file again.
5. Sit, Enjoy and wait for futur msn bug to pop in your face :P
I’ve found that doing the above restores full speed to MSN file transfers (you may wish to advise your contacts to do the same if they’re behind NAT devices – i.e. if their external IP address differs from their internal IP address – but transfers should be fine so long as at least ONE of you is either not behind a NAT device or has the peer-to-peer service installed).
