this is a irritatin problem that i am facing from the last one week.
this is also the first time that i am facing this problem.


when i am chatting with friends there is always a lag, meaning that the messages sent by that person are delayed and the same for that person from my side.

this also i have observed that happens with one perticular person.

i use windows live messenger, i do not know about that friend.
does that really matter?
i will find out and post here tom.

could the lag be caused by routing through a PROXY maybe?

Could it simply be the connection speed of their ISP?

What download speeds are they getting?

Are they getting the same problem with their other contacts?
