the problem started today i signed in to messenger and clicked on the "you have 3 new emails" and instead of taking me right to me email inbox it takes me to the windows live homepage.  this is new to me and i don't much like it.  i am running xp, messanger live version 14.0.8.117.416.  i hope it is a problem with an easy fix.  i can still click on the link in the windows live webpage but it the link should take me to my inbox.  thank you for you help and hope to hear back soon.
