that seems to me that every other user has an administrative account and u donnot have an administrative account..now in ur office r u working on a domain(with servers and stuff) or its just a workgroup(small company).there are restrictions placed on the user account by the system administrators..tats the reason u r not able to download it..ask someone alse to login as himself/herself and download it for u..but i am not sure u would be able to run it even after u have asked someone alse to download it for u..bcz of restrictions on ur account..\ncheers

I had a problem almost similar to that one time, and i deleted yahoo messenger and all its files from my computer. Then i downloaded it again, and it worked. Not sure if this will help but its worth a try.

often messenger goes down - especially when the servers are busy.\n\nIt might not be you!

the best way is talking to network administrator of the company u r working there\nmaybe the yahoo messenger port is closed for some reasons

Try downloading the version 7.0 with voice here. The new version is a beta and a lot of people have had problems with it:\nhttp://www.oldapps.com/yahoo_messenger.htm

Since it's a beta connection, it tends to crash. A beta version of a software is released for the users to test and/or point errors in it. I suggest u uninstall yahoo messenger 7.5 and install 7.0. And wait till the final version of the messenger is released.

if you are using the new beta yahoo messenger this software probably do not work with this version of yahoo messenger. cause the name of the executable is different.\n\nbut if you have 7.0 or older version of yahoo messenger you may need select a different location (the location you have installed yahoo messenger).

ugh, you dont need to download it again, unless you want to be signed in to two accounts at the same time, then use web messenger. you can use as many accounts on one messenger as needed, but you can only sign in one at a time

It is not a problem with browser installation. I too have have ie and Firefox. Firefox is my default browser. Yahoo Messenger 7.5.0 works for me. \nTry this.\n    Uninstall Yahoo messenger. Remove the installtion folder. do a fresh installtion.

there are two possibilities \neither u r behind a firewall that dose not allow u  to connect to messenger if yes u cannot be connected to yahoo messenger\nor \nthere is problem with the cookies,check and enable the cookies in internet explorer

Well, all Yahoo instant messenger software has voice. However you don't have to use the voice feature, there might even be a way of disabling the voice feature.\n\nBut as for your problem downloading it, do you have dial-up? Because it could take a while on dial-up. You still should see at least some progress though. If you have a high speed Internet connection then it probably can't connect to the server. Are you behind a firewall? I don't know what port it uses to connect and download it but maybe if it doesn't use the standard port 80 it uses a different port which is being blocked in your case.

Yes, there may be a problem with a firewall setting. \n\nMake sure the firewall recognizes the Yahoo and that it is on the OK list.\n\nOpen Windows Security Center, click on Manage security settings for Windows Firewall. \n\nMake sure the "Don't allow Exceptions" box is not checked!\n\nNext, click "Exceptions" tab at the top and make sure Yahoo FT Server and Yahoo Messenger is on the list.\n\nIf this does not work, install Yahoo Messenger and reinstall it.\n\nHope this helps....
