You don't need it!
remove it from your package definition!
Only those are required, I install them as separate packages
(Not all of them are updated for new releases)
<install cmd='msiexec /i "%SOFTWARE%\messenger\crt.msi" /q' />
<install cmd='msiexec /i "%SOFTWARE%\messenger\SegoeFont.msi" /q' />
<install cmd='msiexec /i "%SOFTWARE%\messenger\wllogin.msi" /q' />
<install cmd='msiexec /i "%SOFTWARE%\messenger\Contacts.msi" /q' />
<install cmd='msiexec /i "%SOFTWARE%\messenger\Messenger.msi" /q' />

Hello Jacques,
First of all, thank you for your sugestion. A little while after i sent
my message i saw the following article in one of Microsofts Knowledge
Base pages:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943595
That info refers to an earlier version of Windows Live, but then i
started wondering if they would take all that trouble to implement that
type of setup, just to unsupport it in a short period of time. Just to
test, i tried the same approach using the on-line installer
wlsetup-custom.exe and guess what? It worked!
So my messenger.xml file is now looking like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<packages>
<package
id="messenger"
name="Windows Live Messenger"
revision="00008"
reboot="false"
priority="10">
<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Windows Live
Messenger" />
<install cmd='RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection
%windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove' />
<install cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\messenger\wlsetup-custom.exe" /silent
/configfile: "%SOFTWARE%\messenger\config.txt"' />
<upgrade cmd='RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection
%windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove' />
<upgrade cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\messenger\wlsetup-custom.exe" /silent
/configfile: "%SOFTWARE%\messenger\config.txt"' />
<remove cmd='RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection
%windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove' />
</package>
</packages>
My config.txt file content the single line:
p=A26D7C8B-875D-48E2-BED1-7168268D022A*0&s=0&h=0&c=0&m=EN-US&t=0
Of course this will only work if your workstations can connect to the
internet to retrieve the real installer.
I'm Cc'in to the list because this information can valuable to others.
Best regards,
Hugo Monteiro.
