hi,

i've had this problem for about 3 months now, and its getting rather frustrating!!!!

so,

when i load up windows live messenger, it comes up with this...

windows live messenger has stopped working
windows can check online for a solution to the problem

then i can either click on
-check online for a solution and close the program
OR
-close the program

when clicking on check online for a solution and close the program, it searches for about 5 seconds, then says 'the application failed to initialize properly (0x0000005). Click OK to terminate the application.

so i do so. Now it says...



-check online for a solution and restart the program
OR
-Restart the program

which ever one i click on it restarts and comes back to the initial error bar (check online for a solution and close the program, or close the program)

so i click close the program, and have to to so about 3 times for it to dissapear, nothing has changed, same happens again if i load it up again!

IM SURE YOU CAN SEE MY FRUSTRATION?!!?!?!? please please please help somebody?

Hi Josh,

I have tried this twice already before you suggested it and failed both times! :/ I have no idea what to do any more, thank you for you help though.

There is two things i'm not sure of in the programs and features window... 'Windows live sync' and 'windows live sync ActiveX control for remote connection' do these needed to be deleted at all?

many thanks

what may work ???

i have uninstalled live sync, and then reinstalled the new windows live messenger, still the same message appears, im beginning to think it may be something to do with some settings on my laptop? any ideas?

yes i have done a system restore also, still no luck !

i really dont know what has happened :/

Hey, man since i installed new Win Live messenger bout 2weeks ago im gettin the same MSG then U... did u have found any solution 4that..??
