AFAIK, from googling the internet, this was caused by temporary outage of the latest protocol version (15) on MS servers. MSN-pecan uses v.14; older pidgins use, obviously, older msn versions as well. While newest official clients use the newest version, they have a fallback feature enabled to fall back to older protocol.
