Navigate to on regedit:

Leave it to the Mexicans to fix the error. xD
Go on the bing.com search server, then type in 'msn messenger error code 8000401a' and you should see a website in Spanish. It says 'translate this' or something in a link below it, so click that and read the four step directions. then go back and click the link from the non-translated site, since you can't click it when it's translated. Then after that you should be good. :] It worked for me, when nothing else did because I don't have AVG and I tried updating from an earlier version. I tried everything, but this is the only thing that worked. I hope it works for you. (:

Hi all,
can you help me with the last build of WLM 2009 (14.0.8050.1202)?
After installation, when I try to login Live Messenger shows me the error 8000401a "Signing in to Windows Live Messenger failed because the service is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
I'm using Windows XP Professional, I don't have any firewall and my Antivirus is Eset NOD32; I have a wireless connection and WLM 2009 works fine on another pc connected to the same router.
I 've done everything, I renstalled it, repaired it, I cleaned registry and I tried logging in with 3 different accounts. I've also deleted "Windows Live Contacts" and "Messenger Cache" folders: I still get that error.

I've already posted in a lot of other forums, with the hope of finding someone having a solution, because on the net there are no informations about this issue.

Thanks for your help :)

I found this on another website and my msn is working fine now that i tried this. Official version of MSN 9.0 can not login after upgrading,
prompt error code 8000401a. Computer does not have to open any firewall
(including built-in system), anti-virus software. 8.5 when the original can,
but after the 9.0 upgrade will not be able to visit the MSN.

Solution: In the "Start - Run" dialog box, type "regedit",
the registry key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT / AppID find 380689D0-AFAA-47E6-B80E-A33436FE314B
then delete it and it should work fine.

You're a legend mate, thanks!

As a side note, I notice this problem appears when I run "Eusing Free Registry Cleaner".
