Your best bet is to uninstall Windows Live Messenger from the control panel completely, then reinstall the package and let us know what happens...

Something similar happened my girlfriends laptop.
I had planned on removing and reinstalling but i found a soloution that worked for me.
When you try to uninstall it via control panel>Programs it should give an option to Repair it,this worked for me.

#1
Prob Event Name = APPCRASH = Application Crash
Exception Code: c0000005
Fault Module Name: WLDCore.dll
Fault Module Version: 14.0.8089.726
Fault Module Timestamp: 4a6ce514


0xc0000005 = memory access violation, i.e., "access denied" or the WLDCore clashed with another driver while/ attempting to occupy a memory address

The timestamp 4a6ce514 = Sun Jul 26 19:22:27 2009 and version 14.0.8089.726 are correct

#2
Problem Event Name: PCA2
PCA2 = Program Compatibility
Fault Module Timestamp: 4a6ce514, which = Sun Jul 26 19:22:27 2009

Please try a few things -
1. Log into your Live Mail account via www.hotmail.com - make sure you sign out. The Live ID used should be the same one you use for Live Messenger

2. See if you can log into the Live Mail program installation on your system =-
START | type Live Mail

3. Run Messenger at an elevated administrative level -
START | type Live Messenger | RIGHT-click on Live Messenger - try to log in

4. Log onto a different user account on your system. If you do not have one, activate the Hidden administrator account -
START | type cmd.exe into the start search box | right-click on cmd.exe above under programs - select run as admin. Then type -
Code:
[FONT=lucida console]net user administrator /active:yes[/FONT]
Logoff your account and the user account named Administrator will be waiting for you at the logon screen.

5. Boot into SAFEMODE w/ Networking and try Live Messenger there - tap the F8 key during boot-up

I have an HP dv7-1020us Windows 7 x64, Intel P7350 Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM. I always make it a point to re-boot at least once a day. I find that HP systems typically run HOT - specifically b/c of the graphics (NVIDIA). Also, my IDT codec seems to be temperamental at best and is also affected by the intense heat that builds up.

I have noticed that Windows Explorer can easily top 100 MB RAM, so I use SysInternals Process Explorer to restart it if need be and it "calms down" back to 40 or 50 MB.

I don't suspect any memory leaks at this time, unlike I did in 2008 when I traced a 2 GB memory leak to the IDT codec. IDT would start off at 50MB after re-boot, then over a ~6 hour period would be consuming nearly 2 GB RAM!

However, I don't see any of this related to the issue that you have with Live services.

Th only other thing that comes to mind - do you have a 3rd party firewall installed, e.g., NIS, N360, KIS, McAfee..? If so, it may be the culpit given that SAFEMODE seems to be a temp cure.

p.s. --- what do you mean by "it stops working from time to time..? Are you speaking of a complete freeze requiring a hard shut down?

Find Windows Live Messenger
Should be under
"C:\Program Files\Windows Live\Messenger\msnmsgr.exe"

Right click and click on 'properties'
click on 'compatibility tab'
look for 'compatibility mode'
there should be a drop down list, make sure it says "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)
click on 'ok' and run Windows Live Messenger and it should run fine

Let me know if it doesn't work.
