windows live messenger

I can not open my windows live messenger. All it gives me is a message
saying: Windows live messenger is not working. What do I do?

Tried uninstalling via Control Panel, Add/Remove and then reboot and go to
the website, http://ideas.live.com/ and download the latest version?

Today I attemped to download "Windows Live Messenger". During the
installation process of the Live Messenger, I received notice that I will
need the newer version of "Adobe Flash Player". (I believe it is version
7.0). Download button for the Adobe Flash Player appeard. I clicked on it
to complete the download, , the program is acting like it is downloading
Adobe, Program is then telling me to restart my computer for the adobe to
become active. I do so , and then I go thrue the same hocus pocus again. It
appears I am unable to download the requested file. Heeeellllp. Thanks

Go here and download the uninstaller and remove the Active X, reinstall and
you should be OK?

Not sure what your point is, but this newsgroup doesn't
deal with MSN/Messenger issues.
