Messenger Beta, once again.

From my last post it might seem like I'm harping on the Live Messenger Beta quite a bit. I'd just like to get some help on the latest issue, if anyone can help me out.

From the main window, if I go to Help > Beta Invitations it opens up a browser window where I have to sign into Passport. After that, it just takes me to this page: http://ideas.live.com/ErrorPage.aspx?ErrorCode=2

A bad url? Uh...hey messenger..YOU'RE THE ONE that sent me there!

A friend wanted me to send him an invitation but apparently, I'm not even allowed to do that anymore, either. I wonder how many other people are having this problem.

I ran into this too - but that was before I had any invites. Once I got some invites, that link worked properly. It's a beta and it really behaves like a beta, eh? :-)

Ya man, kind of an understatement, really.

Same here - just go to ideas.live.com and once you log into passport, you'll see "You have X number of invites - Send Invite" or something like that for the Windows Live Messenger Beta section.

Hey,

Once you sign in at ideas.live.com and then visit the Live messenger section you should see the red link for your number of invites (if you have any)

LOL

When I first clicked it, it worked, it told me that I had no invites.
Eventualy I got some invites.
Yesterday I tried to use it to send an invite and got the bad url
