Installation of MSN Messenger Live change Internet Explorer Add-on

[Guest]

I am facing a weird problem when I install the MSN Messenger Live on my Vista
PC. I cannot surf the web at all using my IE7.

Uninstalling MSN Messenger did not resolve the issue. I tried opening IE7
with no add-on and it works. After checking through the Add-on list, I
realise that both the Browser Extension and ActiveX Control changed from the
original "npjpi150_07.dll" to "ssv.ddl" (Java's Browser Helper Object)

This problem is rectified by re-installing Java but will reoccur no matter
in what sequence I install the MSN Messenger Live and Java.

Anyone have any solution to this as I need my Messenger to work on my Vista
PC.

Thanks.

Marcus,

I don't have a solution for your specific issue, but I did want to let you
know that I installed Live Messenger 8.0 on my Vista system and both
Messenger and IE 7 work without any problems.

Try uninstall Java

Thanks to Reed and Don.

Strangely, my MSN Messenger Live works now.

But the fact remain unchanged that Java Add-on in IE7 change after time,
regardless whether MSN Messenger Live is installed or not. Installing MSN
simply speed up the process of this change.

Since it is not causing too much a problem that I can use both IE7 and with
MSN Messenger Live installed.

Case Closed.
