Messenger 2011 Won't Stay Signed In

I installed M2011 and everything is fine but it only stays signed in for a couple of minutes when idle. It works perfectly with previous version. I selected "start with Windows" and auto-sign in with username/password. I did this a couple of days ago and had to uninstall it because I use Mess for work and need to stay signed in. I decided to try it again today but with the same result.

Any ideas???

It seems to have a lot of issues for a lot of people. I would go back to the old version.

i spent a good few hours trying to get a safe/legit link to the 2009 version. id say, its pretty much impossible to get the old one now, bah.

I have wlsetup-web.exe for WinMessenger4.7 but knowing how Microsoft tends to do things these days, this is probably just a call to a URL which goes to get the software and may just get the current version or not work at all. Try it?

I don't use it so know little about it. But is this one suitable?
