O.P. Huh?  Help! Live Messenger won't work! "Side-by-side configuration is incorrect"
Hi there.
When I turned on my computer today, the computer drew ablank for the first couple of tries (this may have to do with live messenger).
Eventually, it worked. I attempted to start window's live messenger and this message came up:

"There was a problem with this installation. Windows Live Suite was not installed.

System error details
Code: 0x800736b1
Description: The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log for more detail."

So after this, i started a virus scan (which is still not finished), and I uninstalled Windows Live Messenger. I downloaded another Windows Live Installer to try reinstalling it.. didn't work, same message popped up AGAIN.
I have no clue as what to do in order to get my MSN back! =[
I'm guessing this is because of a virus (computer is STILL scanning).

Any help will be appreciated! Please and thanks,

Nathan
