Microsoft Messenger

i know that this isnt probably the right place to be asking this question,
but i recently got a new aser aspire laptop which has windows vista basic. i
have connected to the internet etc but whe i downloaded windows live
messenger an error message pops up saying 'windows messenger has stoped
working. a problem caused thi program to stop working corectly. windows will
close the program and notify you if a solution is available' then it just
closes. i have tried to download it again but the same thing happens. does
any one know if there is an easy solution that can fix this? also when it
closes a litle pop up message appears and says data excuation prevention has
closed messenger. can this be the problem?

Hi Josh

I'm a bit confused. If you are getting a DEP error, then that seems t
indicate that you are trying to run or install Windows Live Messenge
(WLM). Does it give you a error number with that message to

If you are just having trouble downloading WLM, then you can try an
download it from here from one of the download options

The only exceptions list available is for the firewall.

I think they are confusing that with UAC.
