This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back? -

Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store -

Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used? -

MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then. -

Question
beanboy89
Hello,
I am running Pidgin 2.5.0 with GTK+ 2.12.8 on Windows Vista SP1 x86 and I am unable to connect to MSN. I am able to connect to AIM and Yahoo just fine, but every time I try to connect to MSN, I get this error: "Connection error from Notification server: Unable to connect."
I have a feeling it may have to do with my school's network. In order to connect, you have to install Cisco Clean Access Agent and then Symantec Endpoint Protection 11. It's a major pain to connect, and I have a feeling that that it may be to blame, but I can't find anything in Symantec's options that may resemble a firewall that would block access to MSN.
Any help?
Thanks.
edit: Just checked, and I am able to connect to MSN through MSN's web messenger service, but still not able to connect through Pidgin.
