So it's not every day I ask for help here but this one has got me completely screwed.
Whenever I launch Windows Live Messenger, immediately after I sign in it crashes - this is also the time that our little friend, the Sun Java icon shows up in the system tray - which leaves me to believe it's some dodgy Java incompatibility of vista.

I found another thread
here which describes a similar problem however it seemed to be happening at random intervals for him and me, well it's just whenever I sign in.
Now, it worked fine right up until I installed Java yesterday. THe easy solution to solve it may be to remove Java completely altogether again - but the thing is, I need Java installed to run the CRM application I use.
Furthermore, it seems only to be a Vista problem as I have the exact same versions of Java & WLM running on another machine.
WLM Version: 8.1.0178.00
Java Version: 1.6.0
Just wondering if anyone has any ideas.
