Mmm you'll prolly have to be a bit more specific about it... like, Adium/Msn work @ home or anywhere else, but not @ school? Are you sure you connect to the internet at school? You can browse and all?

Sounds like the school has a block on MSN to stop you naughty students from just chatting at school and trying to make you do some school work instead.

Does iChat/Yahoo/AIM work with Adium at school or are they blocked as well?
