                                  I installed Windows Live Messenger 8.5.1302.1018 using the offline method but it doesn’t work well. Most of the time no problems but sometimes when MSN starts I get the error “MSN has caused some problems. The computer will shut down in 1 minute”.

                                  You know folks, when these people (M$ in this case) put restrictions on the software like controilling the version you intall and whether the OS version is the right one they do this for a reason. Besides the fact that they may have commercial reasons (let’s face it, if we were in their position we would do the exact same thing) sometimes there are also technical reasons. I guess what I’m trying to say is that not because someone finds the way to bypass the version checks or the way the apps are packaged/installed it means that the apps will actually work 🙁
                                  So, becarefull when installing apps using this kind of workarounds otherwise you may endup with an unstable system

                                            Never heard of that error message. Are you sure you don’t have a virus or some script that runs the command:

                                            shutdown -r -t 60 -c "MSN has caused some problems. The computer will shut down in 1 minute"

                                                                                                      Haha cheers man, my mother lives up there so you never know I might hold you to that! Didn’t know of any other aussies on here 🙂 Yes its a very cool site, lots of crap goin on though sometimes it overwhelmes me.

                                                                                                      I got the latest beta WLM running without any hiccups.

                                                                                                      The easiest way is to run WLM installer on a regular windows machine and copy the messenger.msi and contacts.msi to your server 2008 machine and install both of them.

                                                                                                      Of course, you need to search for the two msi files. They should be inside some temp folder…. forgot the path.
