  Just before i do anymore work and get stressed out trying to install it, does windows live messenger work on Windows ME (Millenium Edition), and is there anything i have to install to my computer for it to work on my ME computer, or does it just not work... period...

  what worked for me was to reboot your computer. then try installing different versions of messenger. if it works first time then great, but that wasnt the case for me. i had to try different versions before it worked. iv got 7.0 at the moment. i hope this has helped. (if not reply to this again and i'll try n help again. lol.)

  do not trust automatic updater, go to microsoft update page and get the latest installer. I had the same problem, it work for me.

  I also have this problem, but I have overcome it by using WinRAR to manually extract it myself, and then installing MSN Messenger. I do not know the cause of it or if there is an actual solution, but this works for me. I am able to use MSN except the whiteboard or any of the activities, which may/may not be due to this. Hope this was some help. xxx

  "The ordinal 730 could not be located ub the dynamic link library SHELL32.dll"

  " Bootstrap.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows"

  I would really like to install windows live messenger, I tried everything I know, downloaded the new installer, but it didn't work. Please help me!

  I managed to do an temp. solution by executing the install file which are in the temp file (hidden ) while the error message are displayed. This method also worked for installing directX which also caused me some error messenges.
