Error connecting to wordpress blog from Windows Live Writer

Question

I am trying to connect to my wordpress 3.4.1 hosted web blog to Windows Live Writer to make blog posts from WLW instead of web interface provided by wordpress.

However i am getting the errors as shown in screenshot:

Also attached is xmlrpc.php code :

<?php
/**
 * XML-RPC protocol support for WordPress
 *
 * @package WordPress
 */

/**
 * Whether this is a XMLRPC Request
 *
 * @var bool
 */
define('XMLRPC_REQUEST', true);

// Some browser-embedded clients send cookies. We don't want them.
$_COOKIE = array();

// A bug in PHP < 5.2.2 makes $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA not set by default,
// but we can do it ourself.
if ( !isset( $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA ) ) {
    $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA = file_get_contents( 'php://input' );
}

// fix for mozBlog and other cases where '<?xml' isn't on the very first line
if ( isset($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA) )
    $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA = trim($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA);

Asked the webhost team to re install the xmlrpc on the server and it worked.
