Downloading is not the same as installing!

Be very clear in what you downloaded and what you installed.

Downloading is getting something from the internet.

Installing is running the file you have downloaded, so that it adds another program to your computer which you can use.

1) You had MSN Messenger (please use complete names!) version 7.0 installed and it worked perfectly? correct (yes/no)?

2) What other programs (related to messenger) did you have at the time you were using MSN Messenger 7.0?

3) You downloaded MSN Messenger 7.5... Did you install it (yes/no)?

And if you installed MSN Messenger 7.5:  4) did you install anything else before or after? And if so, exactly what and in what order?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

5) List everything (yep, absolutely everything) which you downloaded and/or installed lately in regards to messenger programs and other messenger tools. As detailed as possible. And if possible in the correct order. Also remember that downloading is not the same as installing.

EDIT: Oh, and if I may give you one big advice, after reading several posts of yours on this forum: do not download and install everything you think is a new or other version of messenger!!! Before you even download anything, make absolutely certain you fully understand what the program will do. There are no other messenger programs to chat with on the Microsoft network than Windows Messenger and MSN Messenger, anything else are special addons.

Addons are tools which need either MSN Messenger or either Windows Messenger to run. Addons only add special functions and stuff and are not chat programs. Mostlikely (and at the moment) you do not need such addons as they will only cause you more troubles and what not.

Also, download and installing anything you think is another version of Messenger can get you in deep trouble. Not all programs are "safe to use" and many programs alter things on your computer (or in Messenger) in order to work properly.

1. i had msn messenger 7.0
2. i then downloaded and installed msn messenger 7.5
3. No i did not install anything else before msn messenger 7.5

4. When this failed to work I switched off my computer and this morning I installed/downloaded Messenger Plus.

The error message I am recieving is the ordinal 31 could not be located in the dynamic link library msidcrl.dll

I have done what Anubis told me about downloading the link provided to do with dll.

Please help as soon as possible.

a message was constantly coming up on my msn saying there was a new msn available so I clicked this.
When i downloaded/installed msn 7.5 on the msn page it would not let me sign in. When i tried to type in my password and press sign in the password would get deleted from the box provided.

if im correct these days you have to Pay for .dll files you download from sittes

And click "Click here to go to the download of msidcrl.dll" (if nothing happens make sure you don't have a pop-up blocker enabled) and click "Download msidcrl.dll". Then Download the file that way. Then follow my advice from just after I told you to download the file, using the flawed method.

You should put it in %SystemRoot%System32, not the program directory...
