To start with I tried to update Version 8.1 without success on XP SP2. Then I removed both Live Messenger 8,1 and the Live Messenger Sign-In Assistant and tried re-installing the newest (8.5) version again without success. The error manifests itself as: -Click on Install SW. -Download WLInstaller -Starting Installer, Live Window opens saying something like" Please wait while Installer gets started" -This window then disappears and IE7 opens up to home.live.com And that is all. SW is not updated or re-installed. As I have de-installed V8.1 I can no longer communicate. What can I try now? Thanks for any ideas |
