thanks Capo, but i get the same problem, except that now it doesn't show any error message, it just crashes and closes.

EDIT: at this point i think that msn messenger 6.2 just won't work on my computer for some reason so if anyone could give me a download link/attachmaent file to 6.1 that would be great!

EDIT2:

i can't because for some weird reason 6.2 won't let me sign in on this computer

BiZaRrE:
The questions I'm asking you of are strange... and even not related to our problem but oh well, who knows
1. Do you use UxTheme patch?
2. What display adapter/driver do you use?
3. Do you have Google Deskbar installed?
4. What antivirus software/firewall software do you use?

1. No.
2. um....not sure.
3. I use the google toolbar for internet explorer.
4. Norton anti-virus 2003.

EDIT: So does that help Mnjul? Also, if anyone at all can give a link/attachment to download msn messenger 6.1, it would be greatly appreciated!

Do what i do when ive had this problem before. Download the MSN 6.2 file and then open it in WinRAR for example and extract the contents of the msi file

http://www.msnmessenger-download.com

This site still has 6.1 for now

BaBy: The site you gave me has 6.2, not 6.1...
reisyboy: open the 6.2 file with winrar....then what??

isn't there a 6.1 file out there....somewhere??
cos i've given up on 6.2, no matter where i get it from, it just won't work on my computer

EDIT: can someone pls use kazaa, kazaa lite, imesh or a similar program to download the installation file for msn messenger 6.1 then upload it here as an attachment? cos my dad won't allow me to download because of it being illegal...so if someone could that would be really great!

I don't know whats Wrong I orginally installed messenger 6.2 when it was supposedly leaked !  Nothing was wrong

Now I try to install it and it won't work

Try choose the uninstall option first time u run the installation for 6.2 instead of repair (if thats what u did), then reboot and reinstall 6.2 (it's what i did..thoughts behind it: not knowing where and what the bugs were its safest to reinstall completely... i had the 6.2 aswell that was released on thursday).

Good luck!

Oki if you openup 6.2 in winrar you extract all the contents o the MSI file and then they are the 6.2 files you wanted, to overwrite the 6.1's. Or however you need them

reisy: When we run and sign in MSN Messenger it crashes

Sunshine: What you suggested didn't work

wabz: completely same
