95% of the time this error indicates problems on MSN/Hotmail's end (and
they've been having a lot of problems lately) but here are some things to
check/try:

Make certain your time, date, and /time zone/ settings are correct.

IE Tools>Internet Options>Privacy>Sites> type in

    hotmail.com

and Allow All Cookies.

How to Manage Cookies (IE6)

Troubleshooting Secure Sites in WinXP SP2
(Hotmail and .NET Passport should be treated as Secure Sites)
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=870700

Temporarily disable your firewall, any "system" tools (NSW, NIS, anything by
Norton or McAfee including anti-virus) and pop-up/ad blockers to see if
they're interfering.

How do you connect? Is the machine on a network? Related URLs (MTU
values):

IE Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>HTTP 1.1>toggle on/off; "Use HTTP 1.1
through proxy connections" must *not* be checked.

IE Tools>Internet Options>Security>[zone in OE runs; should be Restricted
Sites]>Custom Level>User Authentication>Logon>toggle between the setting
choices here. ('Prompt for Username and Password' and 'Automatic...current
Username...' works for me.)

Resetting either or both of the above Tabs to the defaults might help, too.

If you're running a version of MSN Messenger earlier than v6.2.0205, upgrade
to this latest version.
