Remove the messenger from your computer, make sure all the files are deleted from c:&#92;program files, clean out your temp directory (in Start, Run, type %TEMP%) then re-install the messenger.

You probably didn't uncheck a box that said "Make ___ your home page!"  When installing messenger or another program.  You can change it back by going to Tools --> Internet Options (or finding "Preferences" somewhere else).  Good luck!

If I had to guess I would say that your copy of the program somehow has become corrupted.  I would suggest going to add remove programs, delete messenger.  Then go to Windows home site and download a new copy.  This should fix your problem.

If you do have a pop up blocker on, disable it.  If that isn't the case, redownload the beta and install it again.  If that fails, go back to the non beta version of the messenger.
