Re: Msn Messenger 7.5 Closes before sign in




Dear all i had the problem and i removed it, it is some for of spy
ware
first of all check if u have any of these files, if u do then voila u
know wuts da problem.
the files are ibm00001.exe ibm00001.dll and ibm00002.dll, they are
located in program files\common files\microsoft shared\web folders
if u do find them , u have to restart in safe mode command prompt only
, IMPORTANT u CANNNOT delete it from safe mode!!!!!! chose safe mode
command prompt , then navigate to the folders specyfied by using the
"cd" command and finally delete the three damm files, but wait it aint
over yet, also while ur still in command prompt, run regedit and search
for ibm0, u will get two entries, one in the rin section of hkey current
user, named shell , and pointing to the ibm file the second time u find
it u might be surprised that it points at explorer.exe , dont let it
fool u, double click it, u will see the ibm , push home u get explorer
press end, u get ibm ( well they kind of attahed it to exploirer to the
end after adding way tooo many spaces so u wont notice, so make sure
nothing is there expcept "explorer.exe" again be sure NOTHING except
explorer is there. finally , now use shutdown -r to restart ur pc,
viola it works again, :D::D:D:D:D:D oh btw i know i might be very
verbose, so feel free to ask me questions or rephrase it u want.
:D:D:D:

cheers,

I had 7.0 and it worked fine, when i updated to 7.5 every time i try to
sign
in now i get the error "Messenger has encountered a problem and needs
to
close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." if i click on send error
report
a window displays saying
"Microsoft security worm/virus alert

Thank you for submitting an error report.

Problem description

The error was likely caused by:

Win32/Small.CA"

however when I use the service to scan my computer no worm is found,
not
with microsoft's pc scan thing or my anti-virus or anti-spyware
software.
Please help me messenger closes whenever I try to sign in.
