O.P. MSN asks for disk to install 6.2?
Hi, im trying to install MSN Messenger 6.2 and after clicking install i get the following message:

"The feature you are trying to use is on a CD ROM or other removable disk that is not available.

Insert the 'MSN Messenger 6.2' disk and click OK"

This box also has a drop down box labeled "Use Feature From:" and a browse button next to it.

I have never seen this message before. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?

I think you have a corrupt version :-/. Download another copy of the program and try that one.

looks like you don't have the correct windows installer, you need this to install msn messenger 6.2. What windows version are you using?
