| Guest | Install Windows Live Messenger Fails I've read the posts, and can't find a similar problem. I uninstalled WLM via Control panel. Am trying to reinstall. Here's what happens: I click Download on WLM 8.1. Select Run. Finishes. Opens the Windows Live home page. When I try to open Messenger from there, it routes me back to the "install it for free" page. I click install..... the loop starts all over again. Any ideas? Oh, and if I try to install Windows Messenger 5.1, it also fails and gives me errors. Thanks for any tips. |

| Guest | Re: Install Windows Live Messenger Fails Greetings Lori, Just to be clear, what do you mean by "open Messenger from there"? Do you mean the Windows Live home page? If so, the web page cannot spawn Messenger, you have to start it yourself from the Start menu. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "Lori" <Lori@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:73116581-0B80-4F2E-B63A-A7F08B96E988@xxxxxx

| Guest | Re: Install Windows Live Messenger Fails I had to install a new hard drive. I have the Microsoft disc to load Life Cam 1.1. For some reason it take me to the web site to DL Windows Live Mesenger, Windows Live Messenger fails to DL. Why can't Microsoft just have the program on the disc that comes with the video cam . It worked fine on my old HD. "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" wrote:
