Hi everyone..

I`m running the Leopard 10.5.5 in my Macbook, 4 months old, and since a few days ago i just can`t connect to MSN or Adium. Also, I can`t download any files from megaupload.com (i don`t know why !!!) and i can`t send regular e-mails using the MAIL.

I`ve already updated my router firewall and it didn`t help at all. I`ve also followed the steps described here: cocoaforge • View topic - MSN Fails to Connect "Password Sent (75%)

Guess what ? Nothing changed.

Could anyone help me ?

Sounds like your Firewall is blocking all outgoing / incoming traffic. Try turning off the firewall and try it then.

Hmmm

First, thank you for your reply !

I would be glad if that was the problem, would be easy to solve. The only thing is: my firewall is already off

This may seem like a stupid response, but I always do this if I am having a problem. Try a restart. Also, you say you cannot use Adium, MSN, or Mail. If they all are using the same account, your account may be the problem. Hope that helps!

Restarting is not helping... I`m having this problem for almost a week ! The accounts are different, and they connect when using my brother`s notebook.

I just don`t know what else to do ! =//
