Windows Live Messenger Errors
Windows live
messenger errors can normally be rectified quite easily; they
normally consist of either error 80004005 or error error 800b001
or a direct connection issue.
Error 800b001
This messenger error occurs when it has not been installed
properly, or needed DLL files cannot be found or have become
corrupt.
To rectify this the
DLL’s need to be re-registered, to do this, from the Run Menu
type the following one at a time.
regsvr32 Cryptdlg.dll
regsvr32 Dssenh.dll
regsvr32 Gpkcsp.dll
regsvr32 Initpki.dll
regsvr32 Mssip32.dll
regsvr32 Rsaenh.dll
regsvr32 Sccbase.dll
regsvr32 Slbcsp.dll
regsvr32 softpub.dll
regsvr32 Wintrust.dll
Error
80004005
Caused by friendly names being too long, either shorten the
names or install the latest version of MSN where this problem
has been fixed.
Other
connection issues
Of course MSN being a web based application requires an internet
connection, a basic dial-up connection is fine for simple
chatting, but for voice and video conversations ideally a
broadband connection of 512k or above is recommended.
If your Windows
messenger errors could be firewall based checkout our other

where we cover more on connection issues such as firewalls and
which port MSN requires.
