====================================================

I FINALLY got this thing to work. Here is how...

Firstly...Install .NET 3.5 Framework from...
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=333325FD-AE52-4E35-B531-508D977D32A6&displaylang=en

Once you have installed that and rebooted...

Click Start
Click Run
Type services.msc and hit enter (this brings up a list of services)

Go down the list, find and change/check these services...

Windows Cardspace - Startup Type Automatic
Event Log - Startup Type Automatic
Error Reporting Service - Startup Type Automatic
MSN Sharing Folders USN Journal Reading Service - Startup Type
Automatic

If you don't know how to change startup type...just do this...

Find the service, double click it and a properties box will appear.
Startup type is in the drop down box. After you select it make sure
you do APPLY and OK.

Once you have done all this...

Reboot, load Messenger and enjoy!
