removing wondows messenger to install another (older)version

[RDD]

I am trying to install Windows messenger 5.0. Windows
reports that I have a newer version and must uninstall
this first. I have ran the cmd: "RunDll32
advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%
\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove",
Add/Remove programs does not contain the program, Add
remove Windows components has not helped.

Greetings RDD,

The only "newer" version you could have is Windows Messenger 5.1, which you can find here:
