Upgrade to the newest version of Messenger (7.0.0813) at http://messenger.msn.com. According to the changelog, it fixes this error.

I did a little more searching for this and might have found a workaround. Install Messenger Plus! (don't install the sponsor program when prompted). It won't solve the problem, but will handle the error so you won't have to see it. You can download it at http://www.msgplus.net

i tried the program, still pops up though :( i really appreciate your help Cromaa ;)

Do you happen to be running Norton Antivirus? If so, try this:

Open Norton Antivirus (Right-click on the Norton Antivirus icon in the System Tray/Notification Area (by the clock), choose 'Open Norton Antivirus'), click Options, then Instant Messenger then uncheck MSN Instant Messenger and click OK.

If that doesn't work then just reformat and reload. I'd bet real money that will solve your problem! :laugh:

it seems to have worked :D thanks alot Cromaa
