MSN acting weird.

[Rhys]

OK. Here's the problem. Recently, my MSN has started signing me off but I'm still online. As confusing as it is, I'll try and split it up to make it easier. To everyone on my contact list, I'm offline. I can send messages but no one receives them and I can't change my name or block/add people. I've uninstalled any plugins (Plus, etc) and reinstalled MSN three times to no avail. I'm kinda' getting desperate now. I've scanned with Ad-aware, Spybot and AVG and got nothing. I'll post a HJT log even though it looks clean enough to me. Another thing, my messages seem to be lagging too. Sometimes it'll take up to 20 seconds for a message to send. HJT log below:

Remove msn messenger completely from add/remove programs then run add/remove windows components and ensure that msn exporer and windows messenger are both unticked. Then restart your computer and go to messenger.msn.com and ensure you download the latest version and try installing it again.
