How come i cant download windows live messenger?
When i go to windows live messenger (http://get.live.com/messenger/overview) and click the "click free" button to download, i cant download it and a popup message says this:
"Sorry, windowslive programs cannot be installed on windows server, windows XP professional x64 edition, or windows operating systems earlier than windows XP service pack 2"

What is going on here? How can i get windows live/msn? I know i can get msn web messenger but it is not good as it lags very often. Before i reinstalled my whole computer msn windows live was good to go, but now that i have reinstalled my computer this pop-up keeps saying no can do. Please help

Hi guys,

I went to log-in to msn messenger last night but it now says I must update to windows service pack 3. I use Firefox and I’m reluctant to switch to IE and download the service pack (I had a nightmare with service pack 2).

So, is there any way I can update/use msn messenger via Firefox (and without having to install the dreaded pack 3) ???

Cheers

i have installed service pack 2 and it wont open my windows live messenger any suggestions. I did a system restore untill i find a solution when i can install it again???
