Greetings Julie,
Have you looked at any of the other posts regarding this problem?
Assuming not, as a starting point, press the Windows key and R to bring up the Run box, then
paste the following:
%userprofile%\appdata\local\Microsoft
then click OK.
Then, delete the "Windows Live Contacts" folder. Then try again.
Assuming that didn't work, if you're using Windowblinds, you'll need to uninstall that (or at
least set it to not
use Wlcomm or Messenger) or simply use the built-in standard Windows themes.
Next, if you're running any sort of anti-virus or internet security software, you should
uninstall it (at least temporarily, to determine if it's part of the problem, you can
reinstall it afterwards).
Finally, part of Nvidia's optional Forceware software (the "Network Access Manager") has been
known to cause problems, you can just uninstall it as well (and use the Windows firewall or
another freeware product if you need one).
