download zap messenger and ur gonna get rid of it http://ccm.net/download/download-3346-zapmessenger
Alright, I had the same problems as listed prior to my posting, and I found a clever way of fixing it.
Use 'ZapMessenger' to remove Windows from your computer, since it does not show up in the Add/Remove Programs list [1]
Install an older version of MSN Messenger; I used MSN 7.5. [2]
However it will not allow you to log in, because there is a newer version available. Click to upgrade, and should bring you to the final link I have listed below. [3]
Allow Windows Live to fully install, and it should work. :D
That should work, it worked for me. I'm not sure if you could just use the final link, but I am certain the steps listed will make everything work!

Hii. My name is Kat.
It probably would not open and the reason to this is becuase you have been either on your windows live messenger for a while.
To help you from this you may restart your computer or refresh.
Hope I helped.
Good luck ;]

I have Windows Seven Ultimate & Office 20007 Professional. I have recently Migrated to Windows Seven. Outlook 2007 is my Default email Client ( I do not have any other email Client).
In out look 2007 I have four POP 3 email identies including gmail.
When ever I right click on a Picture and click send it to email client, Window opens up to resize the photograph & then says to Google I click OK, nothing happens.

well I have another problem... I can open my messenger witouth any problems but when I log in after like 5-10 seconds it logs out by it self ... I dont know what to doo please help..
i have this same problem, when I disconnect the internet, it opens automatically. ive messed around with that, and when I connect to the internet again, it immidiately freezes and wont open again!
hence my last post, I have fixed this problem for myself. I reccomend trying this method, though I roughly remember exactly what I had done. I messed around with my firewall settings mostly, to the point that it was connected, but whenever I opened firefox it wouldnt connect to any websites. The thing is, your WLM will open if your disconnected from the internet, but I got it to a point where the connection was enabled,firewalled, but the proxy or firewall settings were refreshed, making it (im not sure how) but unable to access anything over the connection(websites, etc) anyway to the point
1) I removed windows live messenger and sign in assistant from my computer
2) restore the default settings on your firewall (control panel -> network connections -> right click then properties -> advanced -> settings -> advanced -> restore defaults
3) at this point you will be unable to access the internet, which is where you would perform a "system restore"
4) in order to do a system restore, go to accessories, then system tools. set your date, to the day before the current day.(or closest date to the current date)
5. Your computer will reset, and you will go through the restoration process.
6. This is where my mind goes blank.. it showed me as connected to the internet, but my firewall settings had been reset so it made it unable to access websites and such, which opened WLM (it opens when dced from internet). Go back to network connections (see 2) ) and right click your connection (which ever one you use to go on the internet) and click "Repair". go through that process. By now, I am hoping that windows live messenger will be open, unfrozen, and the internet will be connected correctly. at this point, you can sign in.
review: im not exactly sure this will work, mess around with it but try not to delete anything important! this method could be extremely harmful to your computer so please, make sure you know what your doing and follow these instructions closely.(BY THE WAY, WHEN YOU RESTORE YOUR COMPUTER USING SYSTEM RESTORE, WLM WILL BE BACK ON YOUR COMPUTER, DO NOT DELETE IT AGAIN.)
i really hope this helps anyone!

Hi I tried doing what you said it just won't let me sign in. I did my password and my username correctly but it won't let me sign. Do u know anything faster to get it working. Thx.
Well this is awesome. Messenger yesterday said that you should update.. and I didn't want to. Today it says "You MUST update if you want to sign in to Messenger".. VERY NICE. Ok, lets update then.. 5mins and I have new Nice Windows Live Messenger WHICH FCK DOES NOT WORK.
