You need to have some software installed called "Java runtime".  The chat servers on Yahoo! need the Java language to run the screens.  It can be downloaded for free from here:

Yahoo servers are having problems....please be patient...\nEveryone has problems either with Yahoo mail either with messenger...

Make sure that you have Yahoo! unblocked from your current Firewall, Antispyware, NAT software...\n\nTry what I said first, if still doesn't connect, then try visiting the link bellow and follow click on the appropriate link depending on your version and problem:\nhttp://help.yahoo.com/help/us/messenger/\n\nGood Luck

Well, there are a number of different problems you could be having. Try clicking on the Help link on Messenger to see if your problem is listed in the help pages. Or you can reask your question with further details like at what point it stops working and what version you have. There's a category for Yahoo! Messenger questions just under Yahoo! Products.

I think it has to do with a firewall or you can try to go to http://messenger.yahoo.com/  and use there webmessenger!  the link is at the bottom it says   Launch Web Messenger

Are you sure you don't have it?  Or can you jsut not find it.  In your Yahoo! Messenger click on "Messenger" at the VERY top, under that is "Yahoo! Chat" select that and it should show Join a Room or Favorite Rooms.  \nIf those options truly are disabled my only guess is that you may have a computer with software that is locked to all chat, perhaps a public control or perhaps a parental control.

Jus click on the Chat logo in the Yahoo website. Select the room u wish to go to and start chatting. When u go to a particular room u will see other Chatters who are logged on. U can either send a general message to the room on u can right clike on a particular id and select  "send instant message" and then u can send a personal message which only that particular user can read.\n\nGo ahead give it a try and enjoy.

Try reloading yahoo chat and see if that works. Otherwise it might be blocking java.

check the settings you may still be blocked-un-check the box and you should be your way.  \n\nAnother way is to delete it and then re-install it.  \n\nBe very careful in chat rooms.  They have been proved dangerous to your health

Hi.  I'de like to run through a few possibilities.\n\n1.) Check to see if your actually online\n2.) Check to see if your Windows Firewall or Third-Party Firewall software is blocking Yahoo Web Messenger\n3.) Re-install Yahoo Messenger, Restart Computer

The new messenger does not really work very well. Uninstall it and get version 7.0 here to confirm:\nhttp://www.oldapps.com/yahoo_messenger.htm

I think you are talking about Yahoo! Pool, and in that case I would say you may want to update you Java.  Your computer is probably having a hard time keeping up with pool and chat.  \n\nHope this Helps!
