Error when Starting Live Messenger 8.1.106.0

Hi, getting this error when starting Live Messenger Beta

In Event Viewer:

Faulting application msnmsgr.exe, version 8.1.106.0, time stamp 0x453e449b,
faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, time stamp 0x00000000, exception
code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x070cb748, process id 0x9d4, application start
time 0x01c708289008c800.

Does someone have a sollution for this problem?

System Specs:

No more programs are installed.

Vista Client -> Switch -> ISA Server 2004 (NIC1 ISA) -> (NIC2ISA) NAT Router
-> internet
All internet allowed.

Kind regards,

Greetings,

The problem is Vista and Flash.

With all Internet Explorer windows (and other apps with flash, like AIM) shut down, go to the
Control Panel, then Programs, and then Programs and Features (or just Programs and Features
if you're in classic mode). Then, in the search field at the top type flash and wait to see
if there are any results. Click each that are Macromedia Flash and choose Uninstall for each
one.

Next, click the Start button, type cmd.exe and press Enter. At the command line type:
cd %systemroot%\system32\Macromed\Flash
and press Enter.

Now type:
uninstfl
and press Enter. If there's anything to remove it will prompt you to uninstall Flash, say
Yes or OK. If this fails or doesn't exist, continue on.

Now install the latest Flash beta which fixes this issue:
http://www.adobe.com/go/fp9_update_b...ler_winactivex

After this, reboot and cross your fingers. The installer is ridiculously bad, doesn't
upgrade existing Flash installs and won't even tell you if there's a problem.

Hi Jonathan,

This sollution is working for me, thank you for for your quick response.

One thing, the Flash Player wasn't installed on my Client, so the Flash Beta
was enough for me to get Live Messenger Beta working.

Kind regards,

Jorn
