    When I try to start Live Messenger, before I even get the chance to log in, even before the first screen even appears, I get a window reporting this error:

    "Windows Live Messenger has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. "

    I cannot get to the point where I an ask what version I have installed. I have uninstalled/reinstalled and cleared out application data folders with my account specific info.

    I recently had a virus that messed up the system a little. I have cleaned up most of it, this may be a lingering affect from that.

    The problem with Windows Live Messenger seem to be fixed by installing MSN Messenger (not Windows Live Messenger) 4.7. The problem is not occurring any more.
