I'm trying to use MSN messenger for the first time on my new computer but it
gives the error that updates are available and I have to install before
continuing. I've installed 3 times from this prompt and everytime, it
doesn't seem to work. I receive no error messages, but when I try to log in,
the same prompt returns. So I attempted restarting messenger, restarting my
computer. I then went to microsoft's help which didn't help much. I
downloaded an entire update package from Microsoft for Windows XP which was
supposed to contain the update for messenger, restarted the computer on
prompt, and logged into messenger and still received the same error.

Any suggestions?
 
I'm having the exact same problem with Windows Messenger. I recently put XP
Pro on my machine and downloaded both MSN Messenger and Windows Messenger so
that I could do a remote assistance with a friend. I have tried several times
to download the updates to Windows Messenger. I also downloaded the service
pack from Microsoft and it didn't help. I'm uninstalled Windows Messenger and
reinstalled it twice. Nothing has worked.
