Skins have never touched msncore.dll. MSN Messenger held its resources in the main executable (msnmsgr.exe) and Windows Live Messenger keeps its resources in (msgsres.dll).
But skins (which are patches afterall) can corrupt the program which on its turn fails to load DLLs.
But the loading of msncore.dll has never been influenced by msgsres.dll... Screwing up something in msgsres.dll will still load all other dlls. For example, if someone messes up while re writing the uifile for the chatwindow (920) then messenger still loads. It will not load the chatwindow and refer to the fact that "A conversation could not be started with
X contact". The worst someone can do is mess up the main window's uifile and even then messenger will still load (ie. you will see it in taskmanager and you will see a tray icon), it just wont show the main window.
Now if the skin is asking for an hexedit of msnmsgr.exe, then that's a whole different ball game, but as far as I know, resource editing, never did anything
.

Like absorbation asked please tell us:
What skin you downloaded and could please post some system information.
As in what version of Messenger you use and what version of windows you have.
