I got this from the google appolo page
"Try edit your hosts file and add the following line :

65.54.179.193 loginnet.passport.com

Full file in attach (to put in /Applications/Apollo.app)"

or you can just replace the host file
the new file can be found here

http://code.google.com/p/apolloim/is...462&name=hosts

i did it and it works
