Yahoo! messenger has stopped working

A problem caused the problem to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available

but I didn't get any solution. what should I do?.

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.

Hi,

Sorry about your yahoo messenger, but please to resolve this problem uninstall the yahoo messenger that you have and download version 10.0 from http://messenger.yahoo.com/winbeta

After the installation i bet you would be able to use your yahoo messenger again.

Kind Regards

yahoo messenger does not work for some system configurations....there are many versions of yahoo messengers are available...please do try http://messenger.yahoo.com/platform/web/ also...

can you help me about my problem? regards and god bless you

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

it might just not be compatible with vista..alot of things are like that i wold search on yahoo.com for a vista version

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 hope this works for you all. =)

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!!!
