| | Administrator status Hi Sir/ Madam, I've recently downloaded WLinstaller to cover my old version of MSN. However, whenever I want to sign in, an error message box pop-up showing: "You cannot sign in to MSN Messenger because you are using an old version of MSN Messenger. Note: To upgrade MSN Messenger, you need to log on to this computer as a local administrator" But I'm the administrator of this computer, & I had cleared the AUTOMATICALLY RUN MESSENGER WHEN I LOG ON TO WINDOWS. So, how can I do to sign-in with this new MSN? Thank u very much! |
