    Hi guys. as of right now, i can't get onto MSN messenger using my macbook. When i log onto my desktop pc, i'm able to get on right away. Everytime i type in my password, it says i have no internet connection, but i'm able to surf the net. Right now, my macbook is running wirelessly, so i really don't know what the issue could be. I used it earlier this morning, and everything was running fine, but now i'm not able to connect.

    Can anybody help me?

    Thanks!

    sometimes that happens. Just exit the application completely and re open it.

    Try Adium, if it doesn't work there either the ports would seem to be blocked somewhere. Did it work before?
