Try using ZapMessenger to remove all traces of Windows Live Messenger and then try running the installer again

ZapMessenger
A regular issue faced is the dreaded “Another version of the product is already installed”, “Your computer has a newer version of MSN Messenger than the one you are trying to install”, “Your computer has a newer version of Windows Live Messenger than the one you are trying to install”, “The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable” and similar messages.

If you have Windows Live 8 or newer, there is a program file called "wlarp.exe" in the "C:\Program Files\Windows Live\installer" folder. Double-click this file and you should be presented with a dialog asking you to choose between uninstalling the product, or repairing your installation. Or after the error you get If you select Yes, it will download the latest Windows Live Messenger 2009 and the required components and install it on your computer. But if you select No, you won’t be able to sign in.
