  When you setup your blog accounts, it asks for your credentials.

  Or Tools » Options » accounts...

  I hope this helps...

  If you would like to share you Writer log (Help/About Windows Live Writer, and Show Log File) we can take a look at what is actually failing.

  Version 14.0.8089 and 14.0.8117 is working fine: It asks for a user name and password just after I have entered the URL to my blog.

  Now I have to check my other PC that is not working... I'll get back with the result soon!

  I am facing the same problem. I setup my SharePoint Blog and put in my username and password, only to get this Error:

  Server Error 2041 Occurred

  You do not have permission to publish a post.

  I readded my Blog Account, only to see the same Error again, I have Full Contributor Permissions in SharePoint.

  Any idea what could be the reason?

  try to check on the Site Permission, beside list permission you need to have Approve rights for site permission.

  May be you disable this function in Web-application settings?
