Just bought a new computer, everything is awesome.

However I can not sign into MSN. (The simplest of tasks and I can't do)

I was wondering if any of you guys had the same problem as me before. Remind you, I have searched the whole web and still can not find a solution.

So i enter my username and password, as soon as i hit 'sign-in' an error comes up instantaneous. Error: 80040154

I am at my wits end trying to figure out how to sign into MSN. I have used Meeble and other BS apps but it's not the same.

My operating system is Windows 7

Please help
