What programs do you have installed? You can list them by 'Print Screening' them and posting the images here.

Also, are you an administrator on your computer?

Fixed it.

The compatibilty mode was running in Windows 2000. I changed it to Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and it worked. :D

When you Installed Messenger Plus! Live, it should have reset the compatibility mode for Windows Live Messenger, as it's known to cause problems.

But thanks for the feedback, it'll quieten the people that keep saying "compatibility mode won't do any harm". ;)

Err. The people that say that (me:P) means compatibility mode yeah, but Windows 2000, no.
