This is my environment:
Windows XP SP2
Gaim 2.0.0beta5

My MSN profile is not able to connect.

At the same time, from the same machine, Windows Live Messanger connects succesfully.

How do I troubleshoot this problem (inability of Gaim to connect)?

TIA ...

  Did you install included version of Gtk that comes with beta 5? I noticed this can cause some problem while experimenting myself ...

    This is the install file I used:
    gaim-2.0.0beta5.exe
    
    I assume this one includes required gtk component, since I see this install file as well:
    gaim-2.0.0beta5-no-gtk.exe
    
    I believe this problem is caused by something else.
