I keep getting this error from MSN, I am connecting through a proxy. Some times it will connect fine then other times I get this error then I normally have to restart of something to get it to work. Any Ideas on how to sort this problem out?

Proxies aren't very well supported

I'm getting the same thing, and I don't use a proxy. It was connecting when I downloaded it a few days ago, but now no luck.

I have been having the same intermittent problems with MSN. It was down last night for a while, then back up, now today it doesn't want to connect.
I was going through a proxy and using a different port number, but I just removed the proxy and changed port number to 80. Not only no luck, but it crashed Adium when I tried to connect.
Never had any trouble with the proxy before. Unfortunately I didn't take note of my settings before I changed them; is there a way to restore my original port number without deleting ALL my prefs?

you're right...thanks! yesterday it gave me the same message, though, but it let me connect using MSN. so, we'll see what happens once MSN gets back online.
