| | Windows Live Messenger crashes after installing KB974470 (Vista SP I installed SP2 on vista happily enough this weekend. Windows live messenger worked fine. Wednesday I installed the above update. And Windows Live Messenger crashes shortly after I log in. Uninstalling the above update fixes the problem. Attempting the "download and run the installer" method (as found somewhere on the web) doesn't do anything. How can something like this be missed in testing? |
