RE: Error 8000401a - Windows Live Messenger 2009 (14.0.8050.1202)
i think from my experience. i had the problem once with my cousin's account. all other accounts can log in except for his. here's one method for you.
basically go to My Computer, Tools, Folder Options, View and put a dot to Show Hidden Files and folders.
Then navigate to your maindrive and go to your Documents And Settings, [Your Username], Under Local Settings, Application Data, Microsoft, from this part onwards. You SHOULD see Windows Live Contacts the folder itself. dun go on any folder. rename the Windows Live Contacts to Windows Live Contacts 1 or something. as long as you can rename it back and forth easily.
Then restart your computer and try logging in. it should work somehow. i did this on my windows xp service pack 3. and it work.
