Did you install the new beta release they released? That could be the problem if you did install it.

Uh-oh, looks like a virus going around...

Instant Messenger Woes:
Got Microsoft Instant Messenger? Can’t log in? Well, neither can anyone else so don’t feel bad. Ironically the virus causing all the headaches is called “funner”. Personally I don’t use Instant Messenger, but I am sure a ton of you guys do and would probably like to know what was going on. Now you know.

People using Microsoft instant messaging software, MSN Messenger, may have been a mite lonely this weekend, with only a virus to keep them company.
