So msn/windows live messenger keeps on crashing, as soon as i click on it to open, i get the evil "windows live has stopped working and blaaah blah blah' messege. Then it just closes. I've tried reinstalling. And all my programs are closed when i try to open. Any ideas ?

Maybe there is some obscure registary error (however I will admit i'm no MSN pro) you could try running CCleaner to uninstall MSN, clean up your registary, and then reinstall it?

if not then I don't have many ideas, anything you think may be realted to this?

Try to do a System Restore to a date when it was working.

Do what vlad said, or swap to miranda

Its probably corruption on your personal folder in windows live messenger.. I recommend you to completely remove Windows Live Messenger. How? Using ZapMessenger: http://messengergeek.spaces.live.com...DA1!1118.entry

Then reinstall. If that doesn't work, you might want to try another messaging software such as: amsn, emesene, pidgin, trillian, (and so on...)

Didn't work genki.

Vladvlad/m0o : i'm pretty stupid when it comes to computer stuff like that, how about to do i do a system restore ?

There's a site called E-buddy online (just google it) where you can log on to hotmail and chat online.

I don'tknow why the shit you bumped this, and right now I've decided to use pidgin for msn. I'll go ahead and close this now.
