Try looking in the programs menu. If it is not listed, then try reinstalling it. If this does not help, check your system requriments. If these are ok, then just go for the reinstall option.

This is what worked with MSN Messenger:\n1. Open up Messenger\n2. Tools > Options\n3. Preferences\n4. Uncheck "Run Windows Messenger when Windows Starts\n\nOpen up Yahoo Messenger and look for something similar

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.

The best thing to do with messenger software is to reinstall the application right over the top of the previous installation.  This will make it so that you maintain your contacts and it will repair software files

Did your friend restart the computer?? It could be that the program was not registered in the windows registry since that requires a restart.\n\nIf your friend has restarted the computer, then check if you have a yahoo folder under Start->All Programs\n\nIn all probability the folder should be there and the yahoo messenger icon too, inside the folder. double click the icon (if it exists) to see if it works. then you can right click and add a shortcut to the desktop.\n\nIn case both the solutions above do not work, the installation might not have been completed correctly and your friend might need to reinstall messenger.

This problem is strange. I would suggest, try reinstalling Yahoo Messenger. Try the latest version.\n\nI hope your PC is not acting weird otherwise. I would like to help you out more. Do IM me in case reinstalling does not solve your problem.\n\n\nCheers,\nManish

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

you would probably have to remove the messenger program from the add/remove program and try going into the chat line again!

There's probably something messed up with your messenger... so just wait a while and maybe check your task manager to see if it isn't responding.  If that doesn't work, I dont know what to tell you.
