Could it be something to do with deleting Windows Messenger?
Yes, the external Messenger API will stop working if you remove Windows Messenger.
I assume to remove it, you did something like this?
code:
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove
If so, you can try something like this: (Note: I haven't tested it, so I cannot be sure that it works)
code:
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Install.App
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Install.Shared
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Install.Reg
