O.P. I can't sign in with ANY account... please help?
Whenever i try to sign in, (and not just with MY hotmail account, when ANYONE tries to sign in) it says "Signing in to .NET Messenger Service failed because the password is incorrect or the sign-in name does not exist. If you have forgotten your password, click Help in the main window, and then click Help Topics." My account works on other computers... how can I fix this?

I use Windows Messenger, because my computer won't let me install MSN Messenger; it shows a strange error.

This might fix it:

Start > Run
type: regsvr32 softpub.dll
click OK

If that doesn't work have a look at the first two posts in:
"We were unable to sign you in to .NET Messenger" (0x81000370)

Wich error exactly, and do you still get that error when you try to install MSN Messenger after you've done the above?

softpub.dll is needed for digital signatures, if this got damaged somehow you get all kinds of problems. Reregistering will fix it and thats exactly what that command does ;)

More info here.
