Greetings Jeremy,

Just to verify, you are trying MSN Messenger 5.0 correct? Not Windows Messenger 5.0? I ask
only because Windows Messenger has policies that can be set to prevent it from running
whereas MSN Messenger does not.

However assuming you are referring to MSN Messenger 5, upgrading to MSN Messenger 6.x may
quickly fix whatever the problem is:

Hi Jeremy,

In the case, download and run these .reg files in the affected account:
http://messenger.jonathankay.com/downloads/enablewindowsmessenger_user.reg
http://messenger.jonathankay.com/downloads/enablemessenger.reg
After running these, reboot and then try opening Windows Messenger again.
