Having trouble signing into the new messenger build?

Following yesterdays release of Windows Live Messenger Build 1202, we've seen a huge increase of users not being able to log-in to their messenger.

If you have downloaded the individual installer, you must install the other critical portions of the Windows Live Essentials Beta in order to run the build smoothly. The essentials suite downloads Windows Live Communications Platform, Microsoft Application Error Reporting, and Microsoft Visual Studio Runtime. The links for these applications can be found below, special thanks to Jonathan Kay.

We've also had reports that the anti-virus program AVG has been causing problems letting users log-in. If your unable to login, make sure you check your firewall settings, and if you're using AVG try disabling it.

If you still cannot log-in to your messenger, please post a thread in our support forum and we'll help you fix it.

Guest posting is enabled in our messenger support forums, but we encourage you to register an account so you can come back to us for all of your messenger needs.

I don't know why but my particular account can't sign in into Window Messenger Live, however my brother's account can, in the same computer. This problem started a few days ago and it kept saying:
The system in temporary unavailable. Please try again later.
Can someone help me with this?

I had only WLM Wave 3, then i installed the new WLM standalone and i started with login problems. I couldn't unninstall also... so i try to install ALL the rest of the windows live apps and the installation got stuck at 84%, so i close the install (forced) and when i restarted WLM was working again. I guess one component was missing and now its installed (:

BTW: I had already installed "Windows Live Communications Platform".
