[SOLVED} Can't connect through any MSN client

I have a problem, I can't connect to MSN (using any client; emesene, amsn, centerim, pidgin, etc).
It could ofcourse be a problem with the MSN servers, but it has been like this for the last two weeks...

Emesene outputs the following error:

[bart@myhost ~]$ emesene
Webcam unavailable
Can't initialize webcam device, sending disabled!
Reason: No module named pygst
If you are reading this, you may want to enable debug
It's the first option in the advanced page in preferences
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/emesene/emesenelib/Socket.py", line 285, in run
    self.do_run()
  File "/usr/share/emesene/emesenelib/Socket.py", line 297, in do_run
    self.socket.connect((self.host, self.port))
  File "<string>", line 1, in connect
error: [Errno 111] Connection refused

--> the webcam stuff is unrelated

Any ideas on this problem?

Thanks in advance!

Selected HTTP mode in Emesene's preferences and I can connect now. Don't know what caused the original problem though. Maybe something with the router.

Grtz,
