|
|
Hey... I recently updated my MSN Messenger to the lastest version (whatever that is now.. ) And when i double click the icon, it just says "MSN has encountered a problem and needs to close".. No error-ID or anything .. How can I fix this? I tried google, but found nothing.. Anyone else experiencing this? .. It sucks..

Hey, do a System Restore. It'll get your old msn back
Edit : Of course, a system restore to get you back BEFORE you install the new msn. Otherwise it won't work lol.
