Messenger is a Windows software. You can install firstly wine, which is library which emulates Windows.
Else there are software in Linux able to talk with Live Messenger like Empathy.

I use Pidgin Internet Messenger. I can have an MSN account or Windows Live Account. To get Windows Live I need to install: msn-pecan

Can you help with this problem?
