MSNExplorer Favorites>Organize locks at "Loading."

When I click Organize on MSNExplorer Favorites, it goes to LOADING and stays there. The problem is 8 months old. MSN Tier Two worked on it for a long time, includng  hours controlling my PC. They said the XMLparser 6 was the problem, it needed to be replaced. The existing XML 6 oarser was removed and replaced. Problem remains. (MSN 10, IE 7 and 8 have been tried several times. Currently IE 8) MSN says entire IE program must be removed and IE 8 then installed, and parser will work. MS Top Tier says IE cannot be removed. Had control of PC for 4 hours today, could not resolve Organize-stops-at-loading problem.  I don't say MSN and now MS aren't/weren't trying, but after months, they haven't been able to fix this. Does anyone else have THIS problem, not the "reappearing deletes in Favorites" one?



Thank you

Yes, I have the same problem.

Yes, I have the same problem. My Favorites completely disappeared one
weekend, so I upgraded from MSN 9.0 to 9.6 via CD. The Favorites organize
page is completely blank, says LOADING and never does anything. I tried the
favorites fix download, no change. I sent an email to MSN tech help, they
wanted me to send a screen shot of the blank page. What good is that. All
these changes they have made recently are really screwing things up for some of
us. I am still using IE7 if that makes any difference.

I had the problem of MSN Explorer favorites getting stuck on loading

I had the problem of MSN Explorer favorites getting stuck on loading when
organizing was opened about 18 months ago. I do not have that problem now. It
lasted for months. Not sure what caused it to go away. At the time I was
running XP SP1 or SP2, IE6 and whatever version of MSN was current at the
time. Since that time I had to do a complete reload of Windows due to another
problem.

On my system I have two Windows XP user accounts. I use a different MSN
userid with MSN explorer on each Windows user account. The problem existed on
one Windows User account/MSN userid combination, and not on the other. You
might try seeing if you have the same problem if you access MSN explorer with
a different Windows user account and msn userid.

The good news was that although I had trouble "organizing" my MSN explorer
favorites, I was usually able to access them, and I never seemed to lose any
of the favorites I had saved. Havent had the problem for a year or so, so I am
not sure what cured it. Good luck.
