    Having problems with windows live messenger not running after clicking on. sorry for the inconvenience and needs to close my ***.

    Please advise.... Have scanned thoroughly to no avail.

    Could it be kernel32.dll corruption?

    Hi

    May well not be malware but to check you will need to follow thw below.

    What is the full error message, have a look in Event Viewer for time of crash and its link to MSN Messenger, plus are you using latest version of Live Messenger?



    As you likely already know is that malware is a massive pest these days and does its level best to hide itself in any number of places, So just a Hijackthis log will not show all the malware that can be on your PC, the full guide of our steps below has a few other logs that show alot of the malware on your PC and where they are located,

    Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.

    READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide


    So logs that you will get to attach are:

    MGlogs.zip (which has 5 logs inside it, including Hijackthis, just attach the whole Zip )
    MalwareBytes log
    Superantispyware log

    plus a guide on how to attach the logs HOW TO: Attach Items To Your Post
