Vista - computer lag after installing live messenger!!

i believe everyone would have installed in the windows live messenger in
their laptops/computers, but my laptop is lagging like nobody's business
after installing. i seriously need someone to help me with this problem!
whatsmore, i couldn't view any video from the internet eg; youtube. the
website would just say that "either java has been turned off or the latest
flash player is not installed". I tried turning off java and turned it back
on after a reboot, tried re-installing java, but both, to no avail. the flash
player is also in the latest version as I just bought this laptop on 19
march. I really have no idea what's going on with my laptop. I hope someone
will help me with this, please! >0< email me at power_madeline@hotmail.com
for the solutions for both problems. Thanks!

I don't use windows live messenger in Vista, I installed MSN Messenger 7.5
And I installed flash by sending a message from it to a friend using a "kiss"
icon. It is an old trick to get windows to install flash to make it work. You
say that you bought your computer on 19th March, but it could have been built
in Nov last year when manufacturers were first issued with Vista
