1.You probably have a corrupt Messenger installed.\n2.Your Computer has a virus.\n    Try downloading the latest version of messenger.\nAnd if it still does not work u have to download a good antivirus. My suggestion for Downloading a good antivirus is for u to go to this page that i found http://www.varunhacker.tk Dont worry abt hte name it is safe and really good

Try to allow more bandwidth to chat program... your connexion should be less used... \ntry not to download while your chatting.. navigation doesn't matter..\nThese are simple hints that should work if you haven't software/hardware problems...

Alternatively try this link (which should take you directly - but slowly - into the "Anything Goes" room) \nhttp://games.yahoo.com/games/applet.html?room=pool_int_c&prof_id=chat_pf_1&small=no&size=800&follow=&nosignedcab=yes&clicked=yes\n(I use that almost daily, with never a problem).\n\nNow, if still any problem, first (of course) I assume you DO click the "Click here if applet fails to load" - AND you still wait a fair time, like literally 3 minutes ?\n\nIf so, I'd suggest perhaps your JAVA is wrong or absent. Check/update that here: http://java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml\n\nLastly, it would be real nice if you (Mr.Asker!) come BACK here, and either choose which answer solved your question... or if none, then Add Details to your question to explain why not and ask for MORE help !

If your company has blocked your workstation from using chat,then it is advisable that you cease looking for a chat site to use at work. If you want to lose your job,keep messing around!!!!!!

Make sure you don't have Yahoo! Messenger running twice.  If you don't, then reinstall Messenger.  If it still bugs the crap out of you, download a third-party chat client.  \n\nwww.cheetachat.com\nwww.fxscripts.mychat.com

I am having the same problem. Seems yahoo did something to their system and have not resolved the problem as of yet. They just keep sending me garbage to make me feel better. It has been 4 weeks now since I have been able to get into chat or get my web cam to work and they are too stupid to figure out what is wrong. Have you tried contacting them? Go into the help pages and you can contact them through customer care. Good luck and if you get yours solved first, tell me how you did it.

Mine's not working either...I'm sure it's just a temporary glitch...click on the help button and send a tech support message to Yahoo, I will too...if they get enough of them maybe they'll do something about it.

use [CTRL] [ALT] [Delete] to launch the task manager and look at the list under the Processes TAB, I bet there is already a ypager.exe running that has failed.\njust select the old ypager process and end it.\n\nThen you can relaunch the yahoo messenger

Are u on a dial up connection. You should wait for  YM to load totally before trying to open it.

yahoo uses java based chatrooms so the reason u cant talk long is ur java settings. u need to fix them or get a later version of java. hope this helps
