ANSWER!!! '81000314' and '80072745'

Dear all if you have not heard simply add these addresses to the following
file that should be opened with notepad and MSN will work.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts - (When you open the ETC folder open
the HOSTS file using notepad).

insert the following addresses:

65.54.239.80 messenger.hotmail.com
65.54.239.80 dp.msnmessenger.skadns.net

(INSERT THEM DIRECTLY UNDER THE OTHER 2 ADDRESSES AND ALIGN THEM WITH TAB.)

Easy done ... good luck.

Thanks very much - that did the trick.

Cool, it worked for 8100030d error as well... Thanks.

Greetings,

Remember to remove these in a few days because if you don't, the addresses may change and
then you won't be able to log into Messenger again.
