In the past, when I was using MSN (more known as Windows Live
Messenger), I resolved this issue by removing the package
telepathy-butterfly.

However I think Google Talk is better than MSN, and the Windows Live
Messenger client is not good.


So I suggest you try Google Talk, it works in Empathy and in Windows too.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy


  I'm getting frequent but random "Network error" messages from empathy when
  trying to connect to my Yahoo! or MSN accounts. Most of the times it does not
  connect, but sometimes it does. However, once it has the problem, I cannot connect
  to the problematic account anymore. I have to close empathy, kill from the
  terminal the telepathy-butterfly job, and open empathy again, in which case 
  it connects. After a while I can get disconnected again with "Network error".

  There are other "Network error" problems reported in Karmic for specific protocols,
  but I'm not sure if they report the same problem as me.
