go to the C:\Windows\Temp folder and empty it.
then try installing
If nothing works, check into these alternative clients, on enclosed link, to the MSN one, they can log you into MSN, but you wont have to deal with the upgrade problems.

Check under the heading "Browsers".
As far as versions, I am running MSN Messenger version 2.2 in WindowsXP with no problems. Lot less bells and whistles and hassles.
check this site for any previous version of just about any known web browserOriginally posted by shawnna@Sep 28 2003, 06:43 PM

Imagine my delight when I found this web-site and the older versions of MSN messenger. Then flash forward to my disdain, when I found that no matter what lower version 4.0 etc, I download, I get these funky messages that I NEED/HAVE TO upgrade to the newer version, in order to use MSN. I would ignore them, but now I am blocked out, I have to download the newer version. The newer version comes with far too many bells and whistles. There is no way to minimize, make smaller, the portion that shows your list of pals, and the IM boxes, contain too much stuff. Can't I just have the simpler versions? I am using Windows NT I think 4.0 or the 4 something.
I need some help - I was running 4.7 msn on my computer and tried to upgrade to the 5.0 but now i can't seem to sign in - it says i can't sign in check the internet connection? Help. It's a work computer and i have been using msn messenger for years, but it stopped on friday.
Being it is an at work computer, do you have a sys admin, who might have decided to block access to the MSN server via a firewall? If you do have an Admin, be sure to contact him first, to make sure your still permitted to access MSN.Originally posted by stef@Sep 29 2003, 12:24 PM

If that is not the case, then you might want to uninstall any MSN messengers, then re-install the 5.0.
Check that you are being case sensitive to the username + password.

you may want to consider an alternative client to use to access MSN.
