I experienced the same situation today. After some time I found out that disabling the option Connect via HTTP made my account work again.
- Do you use MSN with the Connect via HTTP option?
You can find that option in Preferences -> Accounts --> Edit your MSN account -> tab Options.
- If possible in your network setup, is switching this option off also the fix for your problem?

You are correct sir. Works perfectly now. You are a gentleman and I thank you for your help.

This looks like my screen only the HTTP option did not help.

datiger: you must uncheck HTTP connections then restart Adium. If that fails then perhaps you're behind a firewall which requires the HTTP option which is currently not working.
