I am happy to say that the problem is fixed! :) The simple answer for
me was to do the following:-
click start, then on run. Type: regsvr32 softpub.dll and press enter.
Many thanks to the following for their help. The original post is set
out at the end of this posting - with thanks to Jud in
"alt.os.windows2000" who reminded me to post the problem to
"microsoft.public.msn.messenger" as well as to the person who posted the
message below and to Jonathan Kay who apparently originally supplied the
solutions. Much appreciated.

First, try the following: click start, then on run. Type:
regsvr32 softpub.dll and press enter.
If MSN Messenger does not work yet after this, you can try
closing Messenger then go to www.passport.net with Internet
Explorer (also if you normally use another webbrowser)
then click on the sign in button, you may get a
certificate dialog.
Accept the certificate, now if you start MSN Messenger it
should work.
If you did not get the certificate dialog and MSN
Messenger still does not work,
open the advanced settings dialog in Internet Explorer by
clicking on the Tools - Internet options menu and
then go to the advanced tab. Go down to the security
section and make sure use SSL 2.0 and use SSL 3.0 are both
checked.
