You may not be able to, unless you have access to the firewall. The ports needed for communication may be blocked.

kcklla,

I suppose it didn't occur to you that your employer may have that port blocked because they don't want you using company resources to chat?

Well I know other people have used it here and I dont know how they did it. I would go ask them but I dont remember who they were.

I think you might be able to get it in Tools > Options... > Connection in the MSN Messenger.
