Hey Kerry isn't it frustrating when things just don't work!!! I know i hate
it. Even though it didn't work downloading Windows Live Messenger 8.0 if I
was you I would try to download even earlier versions of MSN like Messenger
7.0 for Windows or Messenger 5.1. These can be found on the same website
[url]www.Imzers.com[/url]. Hope it works for you. What have you got to loose. Let me
know if you have succsess or not. Cheers!
