Hey Mike,
There is two Messenger Versions, 1) Windows Messenger
[4.7 is the newest]and 2) MSN Messenger [6.2 is the
newest]
What you deleted was the msn messenger, not the windows
messenger. Windows messenger is tied to some programs
like Outlook Express. If your recieving an error from the
Windows messenger, either it is corrupt, or there is
something eles wacko in your computer.
A good way to start off any error, is to eliminate,
1) Ad ware (use either or both --> spybot, Ad-aware)
2) Viruses (you can have a free computer scan at house
calls)
once these are done, defrag your system, and see if you
get this error again. If you do...repost giving us your
Operating System infor.
Good Luck!
