OpeXp,

Do you have the latest Adobe flashplayer installed?
flash was giving messenger fits, as there was an issue with it,
you can always get the newest one at www.adobe.com
if that's not the issue, look into DEP itself,
Control Panel\System and Maintenance\System>system protection(on the left
side-in blue/green panel)
advanced tab>performance>settings>DEP tab, and look in there.
I have it set to :
"Turn off DEP for essential Windows programs and services only"

if that's not it,
don't know
havin no problems, here

Try going to the System control panel, selecting Advanced System Settings,
and then click Settings under Performance. You'll see a tab for Data
Execution Prevention. Try turning it off.

No problem with messenger here (though I don't use it, it does start and
logon silently)
Personally I would not turn off DEP. Why don't you go to the messenger
website and download the latest version and install it from the desktop or
wherever you download it to.
