limewire and windows live messenger

[triplestan]

hi im sorry if this is a little vague but i dont have the problem, its my friend. everytime she opens limewire, messenger stops working, she cant send messages to anyone and nobody can send messagers to her. once she closes limewire she can use messanger again if she restarts it. she is on a network in her dorm at uni and shes running xp sp2 with limewire pro but i dont know anything else about her computer etc until i talk to her again. i was just wondering if anyone has any ideas why this is happening. thanks, any help greatly appreciated, tristan.
