Greetings,

When you go to Hotmail, it calls Messenger to determine the status of your Hotmail contacts.
Normally the most you should see is Messenger just starting in the notification area if
you're not already signed-in.

However, I believe what you're describing is the Windows Installer popping up attempting to
"repair" Messenger which can happen for a variety of reasons. The easiest and most painless
way to fix this is to simply uninstall Windows Live Messenger from the Control Panel and then
reinstall it. You won't lose any your Messenger settings or data (like emoticons/history/et
al) by doing this.

Windows Live Messenger can be re-downloaded here:
