Hi,
This is chetan from hyderabad. I have installed the new version of
MSNMessenger7.5.0311. Then i observed that the options 'HTTP Proxy Server'
and 'Port' tabs are disabled in
MSNMessenger-->Tools-->Options-->Connections-->AdvancedSettings tab.

But we need to enable these two tabs as we should give our own Proxy Server
and port details.

Could some one please help me on this..

Thanks in Advnace,
Chetan.
