  • Answer:

    Being able to sign in elsewhere would indicate a security level problem with Messenger Download 'ccleaner' and run it through a couple of times,using the factory settings and the'Run Cleaner' control until 0 bytes are available for cleaning Run the 'Registry' from the left hand toolbar but 'Save' any changes before repairing http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/ Re-start your computer Try disabling your firewall long enough to do a trial sign-in
