Try uninstalling, then use Registry Mechanic or anything of the sort to delete all Yahoo! Registry files, and then delete the Yahoo! Messenger (if it still exists)...\n\nThis is to guarantee that there is no settings saved by Yahoo! Available on the PC...\n\nThen try installing it again...\n\nIf it works but doesn't log-in, then check if Yahoo! is permitted to access the internet or not...check that in your Firewall Application...

Try clearing your history & cookies. if you are using yahoo messenger update it to current version also update internet explorer.

I know that if you try to use the web version of yahoo messenger it doesn't always log you completely out.  I had to start up full messenger & log into that ID to get my other account to show as offline after I used the web version of messenger.  \n\nIt's just a yahoo quirk.  And yes, Beta could very well have something to do with it.  When yahoo made a big change 4 or 5 years ago...messenger was screwed for months.  People would stay visible online for weeks at a time even when they weren't online.  If yahoo doesn't keep their servers in sync with each other, this will happen.

Where do you have your DSL through?  It sounds like you might have your DSL through SBC Yahoo DSL, and if so, it sounds like something is going on with your account.  You might visit http://dsl.yahoo.com for assistance.  They will have contact information available.\n\nIf you do not have SBC Yahoo DSL, I'm not sure of the problem.

Go to yahoo.com and download the messenger, it doesnt light up unless you are signed into that.  It doesnt light up for me unless im signed in to mine

Sometimes its just the modem that was bad. I even had problems with two of my computers with dial up. Compaq. computers but I called them and they knew of the problem and replaced it free of charge. Dial up modems are super cheap right now. Like 14.99 on ebay and cheap in stores too. Maybe pick up a new one and try it out. Make sure its a 56 K. Ver 2 modem. Cheers!\n\nAnd dont leave the interent connected all night with dial up turn it off when your not home. It could make it burn up. \n\nCan you get DSL? Sometimes when you can only get dial up you might be able to get DSL! CHeck with www.sbc.yahoo.com

Haven't noticed any real problems lately.  Had a hard time keeping MSN and ICQ connected a few weeks ago...but Yahoo's never been a problem.\n\nI didn't see anything on their forum either.

YES...\n\nIt's been resolved and the whole YAHOO is back to normal\n\nMust be some kinda upgrade to bring down the whole Portal...!!!

Yahoo switched off their Java chat, so now you have to use Messenger to connect.\n\nhttp://chat.yahoo.com\n\nWith the change, their servers are probably overloaded.  Hopefully, the problems get sorted out soon.

Maybe is the firewall or the anti virus just turn it off and when you open the messanger turn it on.

I'm not sure what the problem could be, but try the obvious first:\nrestart your computer (shut down completely, wait for 5 seconds and restart it, don't just use the restart option). I fthat doesn't work, try reinstalling the software (this does not delete the contacts because they should be saved on the yahoo servers, not on your computer). If this doesn't work then I don't know what's going to help, You might want to go directly to them and ask but it might take time before they answer.\n\nGoodl luck
