I am also getting this problem. Empathy has been working fine for months now (since I first installed Ubuntu 10.04 x64 on this laptop) and now all of a sudden it continuously tries to connect to msn and never returns any error, displays any contacts or connects.
The last lines in my log file for butterfly are papyon/papyon.gnet.http-ERROR: 12/07/11 08:31:48.483338: Received error code 500 (Internal Server Error) from contacts.msn.com:80 papyon/papyon.service-WARNING: 12/07/11 08:31:48.483716: Transport Error :500 papyon/papyon.gnet.http-ERROR: 12/07/11 08:31:48.533339: Received error code 500 (Internal Server Error) from contacts.msn.com:80 papyon/papyon.service-WARNING: 12/07/11 08:31:48.533668: Transport Error :500 Full log is attached.
