The sounds of messenger

Hi i caught the polip.exe virus on my pc and now some window .exe files have
been deleted, thereofre wen i am on messenger and someone sends me a nudge i
recieve it but there is not sound. I have tried going onto tool, options,
alerts and sounds, sounds, and there are no sounds for the program events on
windows mesenger nor messenger... I think some sounds have been deleted
because all of the other program events have a sound and the right sound
which is usually used... I guess i will need to download an .exe file for the
problem... could anyone be of any help? thankyou

Greetings,

The easiest way to repair this is to go to Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel, click
MSN Messenger and then choose Repair.

Hi,

I and my Dad have the same problem with our computers and MSN 7.5. We tried
the "repair" and this did not fix it. Also tried uninstall, reinstall, and
rebooting. The one thing I am suspicious of is that we both tried the
Messenger Beta, then uninstalled it, and reinstalled 7.5. That is when the
problems began. Might it be related to this?

Any other ideas?

Hi, for me it's exactly the same, I've tried Messenger Beta, unistalled it,
and then reinstalled 7.5 and the problem started.
