You can repair your MSN Premium service using the MSN Auto Care package.
MSN Premium, an Internet service by Microsoft, lets you access the Internet, download files and transmit emails as well as chat with others via the MSN Messenger service. But like other Internet services, problems do arise including Internet connection and timeout errors. These problems can put a halt on your file downloads, email transmissions and website searches, but you can repair your computer's MSN Premium application and Internet connection using the service's MSN Auto Care package.
