Turn your firewall back on unless you want to give intruders a free bar tab.
Uninstall MSN.
Re-install MSN.
Check the port comm. is not blocked by any of your security software/ web software.
Do this in your Firewall software. its a number between 80 and 55000 or so that is needed to communicate over the internet. If another program is using it, try changing the number that program is using. MSN only works on the specific port number.
If that doesnt work, stuff it- the BETA is still a bit glitchy anyway.
