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

If all else fails, try removing it and download messenger again, I had that happen to me once, couldn't get it to work so I did that and it solved my problem..Good Luck

Yes! \n           Windows live messenger is far better... you need to check it out lots of more luxury... cool look highly customizable.

Do you mean MSN Messenger? What version? What operating system?  What is the error message?  Do you have a proxy server?  Do you have a firewall?  Do you have parental controls?\n\nPlease provide more details.

i would suspect your computer is acting strange....you can try to reinstall the application and see if that works but if it doesnt choose a new service such as aim or msn

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.

it's weird baby.. how can the sign in box couldn't be used... maybe the network is still not ready..try to wait for awhile...because i have experience that my msn was looked like not working but after i wait for awhile..it's working... or maybe your computer have any firewall program... sometimes the firewall program blocking the access of messenger.. better to try to close the firewall program first...\nfor the msn for windows millenium, maybe you can find the proper version from the msn website...

this is not virus,change connection preferences from messenger menu and try again.

I used to have problems with the older versions of msn messenger but i got the 7.5 version and its quite good. It can be sometimes a problem if you have quite a problems loaded up plus your internet/broadband speed will have an effect. Hope you sort it out soon i know how frustrating it can be! I would download a new version and reboot x

I had this problem many times on Windows XP after certain updates...My suggestion is to find an older version of yahoo messenger maybe 6

reinstall messenger, but first show if the messenger is older than MSN7 then you must download version new like 7 or 7.5

Is Messenger 8 still BETA?\nI havent checked recently so I'm not sure. I\nIf it is still BETA that means you are testing it for them and need to report the problem to Microsoft so they can work on a fix.\nI use MSN Messenger 7.5 with no problems. (most of the time)
