L1Nk, would you please tell me exactly what you did to fix your problem. I went to the post you left a link for and downloaded something called Fix Error 8000401a and now I want to be sure that this is what you are saying fixed your problem. I have the same problem, but just want to be sure before I actually use the fix, which as I understand is going to mess with my registry. Thanks.

That post explains what those registry fixes do: the first one fix a problem of Windows Update that affects also WLM login (there is the link of the related Microsoft KB); the second one delete a registry key in order to reset WLM contact cache.
If you don't trust them, create a system restore point befor using!

I should add that this still works - Windows Live Messenger 14.0.8117.416.

I used google translate (google it and paste the URL into the box, when you're on the google translate page) also.

Point 2 wasn't needed, as point 1 worked.

Thanks.
