Can not sign-in to windows live messenger (msn messenger)? Getting the Error Code: 81000314

Finding for a solution i noticed a lot (LOTT) of ppl are experiencing the same problem and its due to Microsoft doing someting at their service end.

Alan L over forums.whirlpool.net.au found a soltion to bypass the default msn servers.
Here is how you can solve the Sign-In Error 81000314:

Open windows host file with Notepad: C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\ho­sts

Add these 2 lines to the bottom:


65.54.239.80 messenger.hotmail.com
65.54.239.80 dp.msnmessenger.akadns.net

Save it and restart msn

Please do remember to remove these lines when the msn service gets back to normal.
