O.P. msn host files problems.
Since tuesday night ive been having problems with msn dropping messages, signing me out, not letting me sign back in (On all the computers in my house.)

Ive narrowed this down to my ISP (Talk Talk) because there we're a few people reporting similar problems with most of the microsoft sites on tuesday and wendsday. But apparently since early hours of wendsday its been fixed.

However i still had problems signing into msn today. It gives me the same problem highlighting the fact my host files need cleaning and would i like to clean them. Everytime i click yes it doesnt do anything and simply rehighlights them when i retry. This is exactly the same on my XP and Vista computer.

Ive tried re-downloading msn, resetting my internet box, checked firewalls and all that but nothing so far seems to work. If i keep trying eventually i get on msn. Sometimes it works for a while then signs me out and wont let me back in, or starts randomly dropping messages ect.

Now i know this could still be due to my ISP but everyone else seems to be reporting that msn is up and running fine now, and Talk Talk tec services have said the same. So i dont know if this could just be that i havent signed onto msn since talk talk have fixed the problem or if it could be another underlying problem.

Um can anyone give me any suggestions? Or if anyone on here is with Talk Talk let me know if you have similar kinda problems.
