I downloaded it and will try it. I have my doubts though, because when I checked my log it said the faulting app was MSNM itself, rather than JNRZ. So for some reason, this version of MSNM just isn't compatible with JNRZ, eventhough it's supposed to be.

I'm a newbie on Messenger. Can anyone tell me the difference between Windows Messenger and MSN Messenger and .NET Messenger?
Also having trouble w/video connection between USA & Sweden, it will not start at times and somtime it will. USA is XP Pro, Sweden is W2K Pro.

hey peepz...

windows messenger - is a product by microsoft that comes with windows
msn messenger - is a program by msn that needs to be downloaded off the internet.
there are not many difference's between them, i think windows messenger doesn't have emitcons anymore (but i am not sure). but other than that they are pritty much the same.
as for .net messenger, i have no idea but i will look into it for you

(Sorry for the double post, but there are for different people)

you don't really need to create a back up of msn, unless you are changing it. for example changing the skin, or addin a patch. and even then a back up is not that important.
if your msn does stop working, you can always download it again of msn.com

[edit]
to answer your question, all you need to do it go to the folder where messenger is. right click and select copy folder. you the can paste the folder in another location, this folder will then have all the workin files in.

In this very first sentence, you already gave your own answer....

JnrzLoader is version-dependent! So, if you upgrade your Messenger, you also need to upgrade the version of JnrzLoader. Download the correct version at http://jnrz7.iespana.es/jnrz7/

(General tip: don't use mirror links or downloads from other sites when you can download it directly from the creator!)

I had the same problem on a friends computer with MSN not working.

Here's how I fixed it:

Install latest version of MSN Messenger, try and load it. No doubt, it will say that the application config or something is screwed up. DO NOT UNINSTALL IT! Go back to your installation file, run it, and REPAIR your MSN Messenger install. Reboot your PC, and voila! MSN will work.

If you didn't alter the executable in any way (patching, skinning, etc...) there is no reason why it shouldn't work....

Uninstalling/reinstalling and repairing do actualy just the same. They both restore you executable; If you uninstalled it and reinstalled it it would have worked also....

They are MEANT to be the same, but when MSN uninstall's, it leaves behind a few files/code/etc.

When you install it again, it looks for that code, and if it finds it (even if it's corrupt), it leaves it there and doesn't touch it.

Upon repairing it, it will forcefully change that code or whatever.
