Try to change your server (with the tool linked below)

HEY THAX CHLOE........but its not helping!!.........i have 4 hotmail accounts....n all of them is giving the same error message!

the error 0x81000306 means "The logon attempt timed out after 15 seconds."....

In other words there is something wrong with your connection to the msn-servers...

Have you tried to completely uninstall MSN Messenger, redownload, end reinstall a fresh copy (without any patches, skins, addon, etc..)?

Have you tried to kill any other application that you have running in the background?

Also, refer to http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=20295
and check the checklist (also note the added points in my post there). Do this very carefully and point-by-point. This means, reboot after each tried point...

yes i have tried it.........i downloaded it again......n installed it........but no help........n more of all.....its not only me who is suffering from this problem........sum of my frnds are also having the same probs....

The things in my previous post is all I can suggest.

Also, don't forget to tryout that checklist in http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=20295
(tbh, you couldn't have done all that already in only 13 minutes)

thanxs for ur suggestions..........but its still not working bro...........this tym i have tried everything...........i am totally confused..........i am freaking out!
