Hi,
For some reason, whenever my friend tries to log on to her MSN account
using GAIM, her log on fails. It gets as far as "retrieving buddy list"
and then after that it crashes, leaving a long error message behind.
When I tried logging on as myself on her computer, it worked perfectly.
Then she tried logging in on MSN messenger (on a PC) and it worked fine
too. What could be the problem? Is it possible to use another program-
such as AMSN or dMSN? Is there another way to use MSN on Athena?
Thank you very much for your help!
