Can't login, login screen hangs forever at 'Signing in' by Psychotron on 08-02-2008 at 01:26 AM

I can't login to MSN Messenger. The screen hangs when I try to login. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it didn't work.

Also, when I go to Tools > Options then Connection and start the troubleshooter it says, "Your hosts file contains MSN related entries which may interfere with name resolution." Then when I click Repair, it tries to login to msn and nothing happens. It just hangs again.

Does anyone have any ideas about what I can do?

Thanks,
Brad
