Gaim Error for days?

Hi!

This is not as much a Adium-question as it is a general MSN question - but as I don't know where else to ask, and Adium is my favourite client - here goes:

for the past week or so, adium, or any other client (microsoft included) wont connect to my messenger acount. Now, it works fine when i log on using microsofts webinterface, but whenever i try adium, proteus or microsofts own client, it seems it isn't even trying to connect. It just hangs a bit and then gives me the gaim-error in the case of adium, or a "service unavailable at the moment"-kind of message in the case of microsoft messenger.

In the house I live in, all the apartments share a broadband connection, so I haven't really got any chance of messing with routing - but my question is, if a change in those settings could be the reason for my troubles? My roommate haven't got any problems, but he's on microsoft messenger for windows. Any help is appreciated!

Around last year or so i couldn't log onto my msn account for a few days. After this though it worked fine again... This was before i found adium so i only tried with the official client on mac. I guess all you can do is wait (thats what i did). Hope it helps
