    I was searching to see if there are versions of Vodafone Desktopphone around but I can find next to nothing. This is probably because I'm not in a country serviced by Vodaphone.
    I'd say, look for a newer or even older version. Uninstall what you have and try a different version.

    Hi

    as you have Vista and at times some applications cannot easily open specific folders or locations thay may wish to use ie. registry and temp folders, user accounts etc

    Try this and right click the Vodaphone Messenger and choose Run as Administrator, then tell us if it opens or if you get an error what is it.

    But also do as mentioned check with Vodaphone for an updated version of this application.
