Depends on what you mean. The very first build? I dunno anymore, months and months ago
The latest build (6.2.0137) is from June 8th '04...

Anyways, this is something I've found on the web. It's a small registry fix which will fix the installer, note that this is/was meant to be for Windows Installer 2.0 and I think that it does nothing more then what /unreg and /regserver will do. (not sure about that though) It _could_ work for Windows Installer 3.0 I guess.
NOTE: DO NOT ATTEMPT IN DOING THIS IF YOU ARE NOT 100% FAMILIAR WITH WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
Before you try, make a backup of the following registry key first. If things go wrong (or it doesn't work) you can revert to you old settings as if nothing has happend:
Export this registry key to a file:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
And export this registry key to a file:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSIServer
After that you can safely run the attached registry file.

What you also can (almost must) do is file a bugreport to the MSN Messenger team:
http://support.msn.com/contactus_emailsupport.asp...oductkey=messenger
And under "What type of problem do you have?" you select: "I need something fixed" | "Download" | "System Errors". Also don't forget to give very detailed info in the big box, especially the full error message, your complete MSN Messenger version number (thus 6.2.something) and that you have XP SP2.
