I had this problem till yesterday. The culprit was some ad script in the messenger ads has stopped working because it was not compatible with my flashplayer. As a result I got the message that messenger has stopped working. Download and install the latest version of flashplayer to resolve this issue. This issue has been fixed in messenger 9.
You can avoid the messenger problem a few ways: You can right click on the icon, and click "run as administrator," or, right click on the icon, and there should be a "run as administrator" checkbox somewhere. Worked for me.
you can have as many IM's as you like installed, although i would only use 1 at a time, try doing a java update and reinstalling live messenger, then do a microsoft update
I have gotten this issue several times being a tech for the HP notebook division and I found a simple solution for it.
Right Click on the Yahoo! Messenger icon on the desktop and select properties.
Click on the Compatibility Mode tab
Check the box at the top to enable it and make sure the mode is Windows XP SP2.
Select ok.
Restart machine.
I had the same problem... I have a Dell Inspiron B130 Laptop. The only thing that worked for me was to do the following: Click START click CONTROL PANEL click ADD AND REMOVE PROGRAMS scroll to Yahoo Messanger, click on it, and it should have a option to repair. Click on that, and follow the step-by-step instructions. GOOD LUCK!!!
