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

Just remove program and install messenger again. Also check the internet connection.\n\nIn rare case you might have had a special preference of internet connection that does not let Yahoo Messenger program access Internt.

The last time this happened to me Yahoo! Messenger folks said some kind of java problem. Nothing worked and I just switched to using Trillian :(\n\nOnly when I formatted my computer did things start working again.

Check to see what version you have by going to help then about. If it is 7.5 it might not work with your computer (it is a very buggy version) if you do have 7.5 uninstall it and then go to \nhttp://www.oldapps.com/yahoo_messenger.htm and get version 7.0

Most likely you are trying to use version 7.5 BETA which is pretty buggy and useless in my opinion. Uninstall the current yahoo and download 7.0 from here..\nhttp://www.oldapps.com/yahoo_messenger.htm

sounds like a bad install. go to control panel, add/remove programs and remove messenger.  then go back to yahoo and get a fresh copy.  see if that helps.
