    EsatBT broadband, I've Norton Antivirus and Zone Alarm up and running.
    Every other website and Yahoo messenger works fine.

    When I try www.hotmail.com I get
    "The connection was refused when attempting to connect to login.passport.com"

    When I try to log in to MSN Messenger it gives a list of test results where IP, Default Gateway, IE offline settings, Hosts File, DNS, Proxy Server are all passed (ticked on the list), but Key Ports comes up as ! indicating there's a problem there. It says
    "Failed to connect to the service. This could be due to improper firewall or proxy settings..."

    Message error number is 80048820 but I can't find anything useful on the MSN website.

    I r confused.
