Unable to connect to .NET messenger service

Hello 
Wel over the past few months msn has decided to be mean and not work. This is whats happening.
I cant access: Msn messenger, my hotmail account, msn groups, or msn web messenger.
When I try and log onto msn messenger I get either of the following:
81000306: Unable to sign me in because of firewall or internet settings
I've allwed msn and hotmail, etc access through Zonealarm.
I also get this messege:
80048820: Unable to connect you at this time, firewall may be blocking your access.
I check the website and it says that all systems are up and running.
When I go into the msn options/connection I have the ability to test each connection. After doing so it says that everythign is up and running.
I think the problem may be that msn is trying to get through on a blocked port. Even my mom doesnt know what to do (You guys may remember her from OTS on bnet as Andrasta, Faeriestar, KittyKiller, etc)
Help would be very appreciated.

*grumbles* After searching high and low for a list of ports used by MSN then actually finding one and setting those ports up to be forwarded to springy's comp it still didn't work. *grumbles some more*
Log file on router didn't show any other ports being used either so I decided to just start opening some of the many closed ports that I've setup on the router.
Well, well - wouldn't you know it! The damn thing finally works.
