Vista - WLM error 81000451 and Live Groups

Hi,

I blocked a test group in Windows Live Messenger and then couldn't log in to
Messenger, this is a known issue which MS is looking into. Thanks to Nick H.
[MSFT] and a link he posted to a KB article, I was able to log in to
Messenger again and remove the group.

The instructions worked, I was able to again sign in to Live Messenger but
the test group I created was still there -- and I wanted it gone! -- so what
I did was, I right-clicked the group in Live Messenger, select Change
settings, which took me to Live Groups and then I deleted the group and the
group was removed from Live Messenger.

I hope this helps,

Sterling
