I unistalled Windows Messenger but, I found out that MSN Explorer needs to have it to connect to the internet. I disabled it before I uninstalled it and when I installed it again it was still disabled. Does anyone know how to re-enable it? Thanks in advance.

RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove
 
Did you try the wild idea of changing the BLC.Remove to BLC.Add or something? lol

I altered it through Run. I tried what you said, jdulmage, and it did not work. Good idea though.
