Since you were so helpful last time I had a computer problem, I gifured this is the place to go 
Okey, so the first problem (and the least important of the two) is that MSN wont let me connect. I'm obviously connected, and when I check my status with the .NET Messenger Service, it says I'm connected. Also, doing the search for connection errors through msn tells me I can connect. However, the problem is that when I connect, it just keeps connecting and connecting... and connecting. No popup message telling me I can't log on right now, just two spinning guys. They can spin for hours without anything happening. I've tried the basic things like a repair, re-boot, close and open etc., nothing works.
Problem number two is a bit more annoying.
I'll send a screenshot describing the problem.
Sometimes (not every time) when I right click an icon in the systray, for example, Gmail Notifier, the popup menu for systray itself also pops up. I have no idea whatsoever what to do to fix this, and I don't remember when it started doing this. I think it was sometime this summer.
I don't have my fix/reinstall cd of WinXP, so I really have no idea what to do.
[I'm not sure how to include a screenshot properly, so if someone could edit to make it look better, I'd be happy, thanks.]
