For Jonathan - Messenger error message

[Steve]

Jonathan

you seem to be the expert on messenger and earlier today I
sent a message about the error message I get when
messenger 4.7 is running.

for msmsgs.exe - entry point not found
The procedure entry point InterlockedIncbement
could not be located in the dynamic link library
Kernel32.dll !

I really could use some advise here - I uninstalled 4.7
and 5.0 and re-installed 4.7 only and get the same error
message . I am lost as to how to fix this problem .Only
get the error message when messenger tries to start and
then it does start running.
A bit puzzled and any help you can offer would be grateful

Greetings Steve,

I'm not actually sure what happened there but I would suggest that you use System Restore to
restore your computer back to before you got the error. To do so, click Start, then Help &
Support, then "Undo changes to your computer using System Restore" and then restore back to
when everything was working.

Thanks for your reply - Tried that but system was unable
to restore to a prior time- I ahd just installed an
automatic windows update in the morning and it seems as
though I am unable to go to a restore point before that
windows update - when computer was running just fine

Hi Steve,

I'm not sure then -- you might try reinstalling Windows XP SP1a (that may correct whatever
the underlying problem is):
