It seems everytime I attempt to login to messenger a
window opens that says a newer vesion is available and I
can't log in until I download the newer version. well, I
have downloaded the newer version many times but I still
have the same problem everytime I try to login, how many
times do I have to download the newer version. I t seems
there's a problem in the program somewhere.has anyone else
experienced this problem and how do I correct it. Is there
some way I can uninstall messenger and re-install it.
messenger doesn't show up in the add/remove program window.

Greetings Richard,

It sounds like you might be downloading MSN Messenger when Windows Messenger is what's trying
to login. To resolve this, download the latest Windows Messenger here:

I have the same exact problem and no one seems to have a
solution. If you ever find an answer let me know
