    Since this morning GAIM crashes when trying to connect to msn. Does anyone else has this issue? Any ideas for a solution?

          If you select the 'Ultimate' format (vs. 'Nested', 'Flat', or 'Threaded') at the top of the front page of the "Open Discussion" forum and then click "Change View," you'll get a page listing all the topics.  Any topic you select will display everything within its thread on one page.

        I have a TEMPORARY install that will fix this issue with MSN. It is a build of the SVN 18th august. It did not crash after installing it on 3 of my computers.

        REMEMBER: Do NOT file any bug reports to gaim if you are using this install.
        URL: http://www.brotroxer.com/gaim-svn-installer18aug2006.exe

        Also remeber that this is a version that can be full of other bugs, so you will have to run this at your own risk. All i'm saying is that it worked great for me this far.

      Same thing here...

      Exactly the same thing here, started today. It crashes only on msn (not on YIM, ICQ, AIM) after it says "Getting cookie", at address 0x009C117D

      It crashes somewhere inside
      6A588ECD    E8 DECE0000     call <jmp.&libglib-2.0-0.g_strdup_printf>

      probably the most interesting part of the stack before it crashes, right before calling the function:

      one of the %s'es has a null pointer, that's where it crashes I guess.. I do not really know the msn protocol, so I got stuck here. I hope this can be used to solve the problem.

      I am not having any problems with MSN and latest v2_0_0-branch (SVN revision 16770) on Fedora Core 5.

      What version of gaim are you guys running and on what platform?

      Funny, like a few other posters here I'm running a self-compiled SVN version, and no problems here as well.

      Could be a currently fixed bug in 2.0.0b3?

      I have the problem on win32 also.

      I updated to the latest nightly win32 build dated Mon Aug 14 16:58:34 UTC 2006 from http://geddeth.dk/downloads/gaim/

      That still has the problem too.

      I am not a programmer, but I had to delete my MSN account from account.xml in order to get GAIM to boot up.  Once there is a fix I can easily go back and re-add the account.  Quick work aroud for now I guess, but I hope the problem is solved soon.  I have also noticed, that I can not log into my yahoo account, has anyone else had this problem?  It just started today as well.

      I deleted my MSN account from account.xml but as soon as I re-added it it crashed again.

      I removed the MSN account from the account.xml, too. But since around noon today, MSN seems to work again.

      I don't have an account.xml that I can find in the windows version.  Which file would have to be changed in gaim 1.5.0 windows version to make gaim work.

        Run `gaim -n` to disable overall autologin and then disable your msn accounts.

          same here. gaim 2 beta3 - ran with gaim -n

          removed msn account

          logged in fine.

          added msn account - gaim crashed hard.

          fix?

          Could you have future versions of the windows installer create a shortcut to start Gaim in this "safe mode"? I have run into similar problems before, and I wasn't aware the -n feature existed.

      Thank you very much :) I'm back up and running and will be closely watching for a fix.

      When I run 2.0 beta 3 (was running 1.5) and enable debug, it gives me:

      msn: S: NS 000: CVR 2 7.5.0324 7.5.0324 6.2.0208 http://msgr.dlservice.microsoft.com/download/5/a/8/5a892c0f-5b87-4767-8927-6fe5d8cfc582/Install_MSN_Messenger.exe

      other stuff and lots of
      proxy: Connect would have blocked.  Then it crashes hard.
