Anyhow, I couldn't work out how to reinstall Windows Messenger, so
downloaded and installed the latest version of it from Microsoft.
I am now able to receive messasges, but am not able to send them. If I
type them in media center, they appear to be sent but they never appear
in the actual messenger window on my MCE pc and they never arrive at
the other end.
Anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
Thanks in advance for any help.
It is available here
Microsoft Windows Messenger version 5.1.0700

If that's the case, I'd recommend Removing Windows Messenger 5.1 from
Add/Remove Programs as described in the blog entry, then get the last
version of Windows Messenger 4.7 here

Let us know if that works.

1) Download the Messenger 5.1 Windows Installer file from the Link
above
2) Download the Messenger 4.7 Installer from the link above
3) Run 'msiexec /x Messenger.msi' to uninstall 5.1
4) Run the Messenger 4.7 installer
Now, MSN works perfectly in Media Center. Thanks for all your help.
