I did not try the syncMSNLists option, but I will.  But then I tried 
0.32.j, hoping it would fix my MSN problem, Fire still rapidly connects and 
disconnects from the MSN service.  I opened Fire's "Console Window" and it 
contains hours of messages like:

3/7/04 8:51:42 PM - MSN - Connected
3/7/04 8:52:44 PM - MSN - Disconnected
3/7/04 8:52:44 PM - MSN - Reconnecting
3/7/04 8:52:54 PM - MSN - Connected
3/7/04 8:53:56 PM - MSN - Disconnected
3/7/04 8:53:56 PM - MSN - Reconnecting
3/7/04 8:54:12 PM - MSN - Connected
3/7/04 8:55:20 PM - MSN - Disconnected
3/7/04 8:55:20 PM - MSN - Reconnecting
3/7/04 8:55:30 PM - MSN - Connected
3/7/04 8:56:33 PM - MSN - Disconnected
3/7/04 8:56:33 PM - MSN - Reconnecting
3/7/04 8:56:49 PM - MSN - Connected
3/7/04 8:57:53 PM - MSN - Disconnected
3/7/04 8:57:53 PM - MSN - Reconnecting
3/7/04 8:58:14 PM - MSN - Connected
3/7/04 8:59:17 PM - MSN - Disconnected
3/7/04 8:59:17 PM - MSN - Reconnecting
3/7/04 8:59:25 PM - MSN - Connected
3/7/04 9:00:26 PM - MSN - Disconnected
3/7/04 9:00:26 PM - MSN - Reconnecting
3/7/04 9:00:40 PM - MSN - Connected
3/7/04 9:01:43 PM - MSN - Disconnected
3/7/04 9:01:43 PM - MSN - Reconnecting
3/7/04 9:01:51 PM - MSN - Connected
3/7/04 9:02:51 PM - MSN - Disconnected
3/7/04 9:02:51 PM - MSN - Reconnecting
[etc...]

Those messages might be interspersed by notices that buddies from other 
services have logged on or off, but those services are working fine.  In 
other words, my network connection is fine, but Fire is spontaneously 
disconnecting and reconnecting to MSN.

0.32.k, anyone?  ;)
