Msn messenger 8.5 keeps crashing! Help plz

[chloe00]

Im currently using msn messenger 8.5 for windows vista, and its constantly crashing everytime i try to accept my contact's webcam. I tried reinstalling several times but the problem keeps happening only when i try to accept my contacts' webcam. To help fix the problem temporarily, i have to close messenger after it crashes and go to control panel to repair the program or i just restart my router. Doing this is becoming restless. Is there a way to fix this problem completely? The reason i haven't switched to messenger 9.0 is for the fact that the display pics in the chat window are on the left, which really bugs me.

If anyone knows how to fix that problem for meseenger 9.0, please tell me=) also if there's a patch for messenger 9.0 to change the display pics in the chat window to the right.

Thanks
