You keep getting error code 80048103 when you try to sign in to Messenger? This might be caused by your nVidia firewall.

Thus, open your Control Panel, and look for the place where to uninstall programs.
In the list, find “Nvidia Network Access Manager” and uninstall it.
Reboot your computer and retry to sign in to Windows Live Messenger.

Be sure that you still have a firewall. You can simply use Windows Firewall, located in the Control Panel as well.
