Forsome reason whenever i try to install it the new Msg Plus! Live i receive this message:

You do not have proper security rights to install Messenger Plus! Live on this computer

I don't understand how this is possible when i have administrator settings...

CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP!!!! 

(running Windows XP Home Edition)

Do you have build 235? Do you have service packs?
Do you have any app that may be blocking changes?

Build 235 of what?  I don't have Msg Plus! anymore because of the new MSN so it's already uninstalled.  I have Service Pack 1 because SP2 won't work for some odd reason & there are no programs blocking it.

I also get the message to try installing from an Administrator account but when i try to do that from safe mode in order to get to the Administrator account, there is no internet connection so i'm unable to try..

Please search next time.

Matty's reply to Installation error =(

Thank you, i tried administrator with it's password but now i get the message:

Unable to log on:
Logon Failure: user account restriction.  Possible reasons are blank passwords are not allowed, logon hour restrictions, or a policy has been enforced.

but i'll try logging on from safe mode on Administrator and see if i can try then

Is your user account actually an Administrator? Because Messenger Plus! will not install on a limited access account.

Safe mode... So much for MP!L...

The only accounts i have are "Administrator" and my own account which is set to Administrator settings

I also tried logging on from Administrator - Safe Mode account and it still didn't work

is there any solution i can't stand not having Plus!

Any help?

I've got a similar problem here - the installer won't load up; I just get an "error" tone, and it won't load.

Tried doing the "run as..." routine, on a newly created second admin account.

then it says it can't access the file, i might not have the right permissions.

Anyone help please?

Thanks

Daniel

i don't know if we have the exact same problem or not, but at least i'm not the only one out there!  Just hope to find some solution ASAP i really want the new Msg Plus! Live
