Description updated, as at some point MSN started working again -- although the connection is very unreliable.
** Summary changed: - Cannot connect to MSN + Connection to MSN often lost ** Description changed: - I've tried reinstalling Pidgin, installing from the source (which I - couldn't get to work), and even installing GNU TLS, OpenSSL, and SILC. - I've tried using the HTTP method, and switching from the GNOME Proxy - Settings to No Proxy. No matter what I do, I can't get Pidgin to connect - to MSN. + Okay, I previously couldn't connect to MSN at all, but at some point it + just started working. However, I often lose my connection to MSN, and + sometimes I have to wait a bit before I can connect again. What might be + wrong here? I'm not behind a firewall -- at least, not one that would + interfere with MSN.
