When I am trying to log into MSN I also get an error message saying that
windows has to close. The computer tells me that Data Execution Prevention
(DEP) which is a security feature stopped me from logging on so I try to
change the DEP settings for MSN but it won't let me because MSN is apart of
Windows. On the other hand my Yahoo7 Messenger works great. Can someone help
me out?

It seems that installing an old version of MSN Messenger first and then
install Live Messenger solves the problem, according to a post in the
dutch groups.
Seems it's only a problem on Acer laptops though...

Thanks for the tip. I was having the same problem and found that Version 8
on a recent PC World magazine disc solved the problem.

I think its ironic that the latest MS download doesn't work on the latest MS
operating system!

Hi I have the same problem, just bought my new acer laptop, and took it back
to where i bought it and they tried to fix, but it will not connect to msn
messenager, I will try some of the suggestions in the discussion group,
thanks for the tips. It is really annoying. I though i would be on msn and
chatting to my friends world wide, hope it can be solved.
