you may have an earlier version of msn still active on your pc, when you installed 7.5, you will have found that there could still be 2 versions listed in the start menu. maybe deleting the earlier version might help. also do you have an onboard mail service like outlook active, does msn use this to display your mails. i use msn but don't use it for mail so i don't know about this bit, i use yahoo which is an offsite mail servar for me, outlook doesn't really get much use.
