i dont know but somebody might have hacked into your computer and got your password i recommend you to get another email address and tell everybody who emails you to email you to your new address  and also get any software that protects your computer and dont use the same password to prevent more hackers & viruses.

Log out of everything, and shut down all internet windows, go to control panel, uninstall/remove programs, choose messenger. redownload and reinstall it. This is messing everything up.

It could well be just a glitch on Yahoo's end and can also be that someone else is using your ID. What i will advise is that, first you try signing in on another system or at another time to make sure its not just that computer's problem. Call your friends and ask them if they have been able to log in, if they have, then its maybe not a problem with Yahoo.\n\nI would advise you then change your password immediately. If you are able to, it would likely solve the problem of someone else using your ID. And finally, always ensure you sign out completely anytime you are using messenger in a public places.

Uninstall the one that you are using, in control panel, under, add/remove programs..Then go back to the page where you download the messenger, and get the latest version, that is available, That way, you are starting all over, and any problems, that you might have had, will be gone..It is best, always to get the latest version available..Good Luck..

There could be a problem with your internet connection or with Instant Messengers server.  Try turning off Instant Messenger and then signing on again.

There is only one account and you cannot "cancel" it.  If you no longer want to use Messenger, you can simply uninstall it from your computer, or change the settings so it doesn't launch every time you boot your computer.

Uninstall the messenger from remove programs in the control panel. Then reinstall the messenger. That usually does the trick.

If you havent' already done so, d/load the new messenger from messenger.yahoo.com. Answer the introductory set up questions and then you can save your usernamea and password so that it logs you in everytime.

You can go down to the taskbar, & click right on the messenger face, & at the bottom it says "exit", click it, then go back to your homepage, & type Yahoo Messenger in your address bar, & re-install it again, if you wish.\nIt will most likely say that you already have it installed, but you can install over that, & when you log-on, & you want to have messenger show up also, make sure that you go to  in yahoo  messenger, "preferences", & go to "general", & the little square where it says to "signing out of yahoo messenger" just make sure the box is cleared. you can also go to your homepage & go to "tools", then "browser options" & where it says when browser signs out, ( the box where it says AUTOMATICALLY SIGN-OUT OF Yahoo MESSENGER), make sure it's cleared.
