go to yahoo.com and type in "download new yahoo messenger" without the quotes. look for a link that IS NOT from yahoo, download the whole thing and install it that way rather than over the internet with the auto installer. flash player the same thing
Your Yahoo Messenger software may be corrupted. If you're on a Windows PC, go to Control Panel and select Add/Remove programs. Scroll to Yahoo Messenger and remove it. Go back to your Yahoo account and download Yahoo Messenger again.
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.
Well trish I have deleted and replaced messenger more times than i can like to admit as computer kept crashing everytime i switch back or forth my contacts were always there whan i finished downloading either program
