Live Messneger Crash Fix

[Osiris]

Lately Live Messenger has been crashing, here is the fix that worked for me:

Shut down Messenger, then clicking Start, then
Run, type:
%appdata%\Microsoft

Right-click the MSN Messenger folder and choose Delete. Then restart Messenger and see if the problem has been corrected.

I was receiving Live Messenger has encountered an error....... So far so good

Well that didnt fix my issue. Seems to be a problem with Flash10.ocx

When I would open IE, Flash10.ocx would crash, along with IE. When messenger was launched it would crash and if it didnt crash on launch, it would crash when I'd send a wink, which uses Flash. So I uninstalled Flash, reinstalled and so far so good.
