I am also having the same problem with both versions of GAIM (1.5.0 and 2.0 Beta3)
When the MSN account is disabled, the other messenger services have no problems. This problem only started 3-4 days ago. The funny thing is that I have no problem running GAIM 1.5.0 with my MSN account enabled on my home computer, whereas on my computer at work, it crashes when trying to load the MSN buddy list. Any ideas?
