I'm able to confirm this too. I found out that it's the phrase
"download.php" that triggers the error. The switchboard server simply
closes the connection if "download.php" occurs anywhere in the message,
thus "asdfdownload.phpghjk" will also trigger the error.

The connection also gets closed if I use Gaim, so I'm pretty sure that
it's not a bug in PyMSNt. It's my guess that MSN maintains a blacklist,
perhaps to prevent viruses from spreading.

However, as you mention, it's not possible to send messages after the
switchboard connection has been closed. I think PyMSNt should create a
new connection when this occurs.

Best regards,
Lars

Yes it seems that gaim still sends messages to the other party after the error 
occurs, but the transport just stops sending messages. Any fix to this would 
be great :)

Thanks for testing Lars.

I'm trying to install this, but getting problems due to missing
/etc/lsb-release.

Can you please advise what I need?
