I just tried my MSN premium again and moved the dashboard to the screen separately and it worked to get into my MSN Premium email. This requires that your computer is logged into MSN Explorer. If the login is terminated it would require logging in again. Hopefully this will continue to work and not crash as it did before.

  I have 1 computer that was not crashing in msn explorer and 1 that was.  I checked the version # of the msn on each computer and discovered the 1 that did not crash had 11.50.0044.1200 and the 1 that did had 11.50.0043 etc.  I went the MSN Member center on the 1 that was crashing and re-downloaded the software which updated it to 11.50.0044.1200 and it now works without crashing.  Might be worth a try

I also have this same problem.  Why doesn't MSN just fix this issue????  I have a friend who is 93 and has used MSN email exclusively for 20 years.  She emails her 97 yr. old sister and her 89 yr. old sister every day and the 3 of them are not up to learning how to use a new email.  In addition, I have gobs of information stored in my MSN address book and have numerous special groups that I have created that will not transfer over to Outlook.  MSN email is the ONLY reason I've paid the annual fees ... it was the BEST program out there ~ please do not let it die on the vine!
