    [SOLVED] aMSN fails to connect after Hardy-proposed updates

    As of a few hours ago aMSN fails to connect to the MS servers.

    At first I thought this might be due to Hardy-proposed updates to two ns libraries (libnspr4-0d and libnss3-1d) but the same failure occurs on a Ubuntu Studio install that has had no updates, and on an Intrepid install.

    aMSN starts up at start-up, but hangs at "Logging in..." instead of connecting.

    Starting aMSN from a terminal gives no error messages.

    Connecting to the same MS Live account using Pigeon as a chat client or Firefox to access Hotmail succeeds - the username/password info is correct.

    Has anyone else noticed this?
