Hey again PeterAlevizos, follow these instructions:
1. Verify if you have the latest version of Windows Live Messenger by clicking on Help-->About Messenger and reading the Build number. You should see "Build 8.0.0792.00"
2. If you see any other number listed there, install the latest version of Messenger from http://get.live.com/messenger/overview .
3. Attempt to sign into Messenger again.
If you are still unable to sign in:
4. Delete the Contacts Cache folder by following the steps below:
> Locate the following folder, and then delete all the files that are in this folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\Contacts where is the login name you use to sign into windows.
> Locate the following folder, and then delete both folders contaied inside it:
C:\Documents and Settings\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live Contacts
5. Try signing into Messenger again.
Once you have followed all the instructions, let me know if your problem has been resolved.
Cool

After Documents and settings, there should be a folder with your username
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live Contacts

It's a hidden folder.
in explorer, press Tools (menu ba) > folder Options > view (tab)
there, choose Hidden Files and Folders > Display hidden Files and Folders
hope it helps,
