MSN Messenger 6.2 hangs up after logonproces

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.messenger (More info?)

I run XP and have the most recent updates including SP2 and have recently
installed Norton Antivirus 2004. My Messenger functioned perfectly for more
than a week, but then suddenly on day the program stalled after logon. The is
no problem accessing the internet otherwise and I can acces my hotmail with
the normal NET. Password. I have tryed to repaer the installation, delete it
and reinstal but still gets the same trouble. If I imediatly stops the logon
proces I can acces the topmenu in Messenger, but after logon the menu typecly
disapers or the grafic apperance of the Messenger-window changes, the curser
turns to the normal hourglas and the only possible action is to terminate the
program. I get a messege saying the the program dosnt answer, and the the
reprorting a failure window appears and two files are created. I have tryed
to report the failure, but still dosnt know what to doo...???????

Hope you can help.!

Greetings Poller,

To correct this, click Start, then Run, then type:
%appdata%\microsoft
and click OK.

Right-click the MSN Messenger folder and choose Delete. After all this, restart Messenger
and see if the problem has been corrected.
