Windows Live Messenger Problems

Hello,

i tried to download windows live essentials trying to update my msn and whatnot. for some reason it didn't fully download, and although i have removed it from my list of downloads and tried to remove it from my programs and features, my msn still wont open. i click on the link and it says: "the procedure entry point ?GetHeight@CRMImage@@QBEHXZ could not be located in the dynamic link library UXCore.dll." and then i exit the box and Microsoft Windows pops up and tells me Windows Live Essentials has stopped working: a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

So i've been on the internet trying to find solutions and i can't, if anyone knows what i can/should do please help me!
