Greetings Kevin,
Just as a starting point, you might try downgrading to the previous version just to see if
this happens there.
To do so, just head over to Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel, find Windows Live
Essentials and uninstall Messenger from there.
You can then install 8.5 (2008) by downloading and running the following Microsoft Installer
