IE stops rendering xml after installing Netscape 8

I usually keep a log of all my chats on msn messenger for later reference. I do a lot of work related chats with a lot of people, and I don't usually take notes of the points we discuss, I rely on msn messenger logging my chats so that I can get back to them later. Msn messenger logs the chats as xml, and it uses an xslt file to display the chats in a more readable way. So the other day I wanted to go through a chat log that I had with a client, I right-clicked his name in my contact list and chose View Message History from the context menu, the Message History window opened, but with a blank page.......where did the chat log go???? I checked the xml file, it was there and all the data was in it. I opened it with IE and again it opened with a blank page. I opened it with FireFox and it opened normaly. So I knew the problem was with IE. After I googled abit about it, I found this blog post on the IE blog. It looks like after insalling Netscape 8, the XML rendering capabilities of Internet Explorer no longer work. Nice..........

As I said before, I rely on my chat logs a lot. For those of you who don't know how MSN Messenger saves...
