How to troubleshoot Trayclnt error messages?

After reloading MSN 8 I continue to get an error window saying I have a "Trayclnt Error". This only started after I had everything up and running smooth and then ran scandisk and defragged the drive. I then went to open up the IE (6.0), and the error window started popping up every time I clicked to open it. I can close the message and everything continues on as usual. It's a small annoyance, but it also tells me that something isn't right.

First off, what is a Trayclnt error? And of course, how do I get it taken care of?

Thank you for your time... Wm. Craig

Try downloading and install MSN 5.6 again, it should work I read in another forum that some files were corrupt in the initial release and MSN fixed them.

Or you could try this:

- Go to Control Panel/Add Remove Programs and remove MSN Internet Access 5.4 or whichever version you have.

Reboot if prompted.

- Go to Dial-Up-Networking and create a manual connection named "temp".

- Once connected, launch Internet Explorer.

- Then go to: http://fdl.msn.com/public/msnqfe/components/us/msn54fu.exe

- Choose "Run this program from its current location" and select "OK" button at

the File Download dialog.

- Select "Yes" if prompted with any Security Warning dialogs.

- This will self-extract the EXE file and launch a new browser window that

points to https://migration.msn.com/upgrade53 .

- You will be prompted with an "Explorer User Prompt" dialog Enter in your MSN

Member ID without the domain name such as @msn.com For example, johndoe Select

"OK".

- Go through the migration web pages as usual Do not interrupt the migration.

- When the upgrade is complete, you will be disconnected, and Logon Manager will

launch The user will need to enter their password.

- Click "Sign-in" and they will begin the poptimization process.

- Go back into DUN and remove ONLY the "temp" connection that you created in the

steps listed above Do not remove the MSN Internet Access connection.
