Why do you need your old version? You should be able to log in with the same name and password and all your friends, etc. will still be there. If it has been uninstalled and you really want it back you should do an internet search and see if you can find a site that lets you download the old version.

The new messenger does not work very well. You need to go to control panel add/remove programs and then find Yahoo Messenger then uninstall. To get a version that DOES work go here and download version 7.0\nhttp://www.oldapps.com/yahoo_messenger.htm

if so, remove it from your system (uninstall it properly) and install it again. The latest version is at http://messenger.yahoo.com

I think its impossible if you want old version of YM from Yahoo! But you can search on the net, who know some one still keep it. :)\nRight now i use old version (ver 6) than the new one. Because the newest version has a lot of trouble with my PC.
