MSN connecct problem

Hi, I'm using 0.76. Starting from 0.75, when I'm trying connect to my msn account via the drop down of the ducky status menu on top menu bar. Sometimes it will take forever.

When I go to my statu menu, it said that it's "connecting". I then select "disconnect" from the menu. First time, nothing happend. Then I "disconnect again" and then a "connect" sound came on and my contact list showed up.

This "disconnect" twice method worked a few times for me when the problem occurs.

At first I thought it's MSN network problem. But I've use mercury and offical msn and they works everytime.
Strange!

i had been having the same problem, and fixed it by going back to .74 ..although it is not recommended by the programmers..it worked for me.,.

just replace the application file and thats it..

I'd recommend going forwards instead of backwards.

Have you tried 0.77?

How about trying the 0.8 beta?

HI!

I'm having the same problem with my MSN account. I also tried different versions, 0.75.1 - 0.76 - 0.77 and 0.8 beta but still have this issue. My MSN just keeps trying to connect and nothing happens.

Is this just a recent issue or a long-term problem?

There have been problems with the msn servers recently. Took me ages to sign on just now.

U R right... The problem was the MSN network, not Adium... Sorry, now is working... I'm now using beta 0.8b8...
