MSN Randomly locks up

[[TW]Fox]

Hi guys,

I am running the previous version of MSN.

For some time now I've had the odd problem where it locks up - ie doesnt respond at all - for about a minute. Then it unfreezes and everything is fine. It didnt used to sign me out during this, and it happened a few times a week.

Lately its been getting worse - this evening its done it 5 times in the space of an hour and each time it's signed me out now as well.

The application itself never crashes and always recovers.

Any ideas what is going on here? Not noticed any other issues with other applications.

Try blocking the ads or use Trillian.

I had the same issue with MSN, no matter what version I had, it would always do it, related to flash from memory. Dumped MSN in the end and moved to pidgin.

I have this problem were it just keeps disconnecting me from msn, but its not the program, I tried trillian and the same thing keeps happening :/
