Are you running the installer with administrator privileges ? If not then right click on the installer and select "Run as ..." then chose your administrator user and whack in the password.
Hopefully that'll sort you out (yn)

please note that this is not the latest build of Windows Live Messenger. There are .msi files for the latest version, too. I just can't seem to find one online atm...

If someone has them, link me or send them to me. I don't mind hosting them, but it takes a lot of work to extract them (if you want them for all languages like i did last time) :).

If you have installed the latest 8.5 from the WL installer you can find just the messenger installer in this directory:

X:\Program Files\Common Files\WindowsLiveInstaller\MsiSources

You will have something like this:

Install_{508CE775-4BA4-4748-82DF-FE28DA9F03B0}.msi


The numbers in the brackets are random, they will not be the same for everyone i believe.

Also you will need to enable hidden and system files to find that installer.
