I had a similar problem with a game I bought through Yahoo Games.\n\nI bought a game and paid for it... but when I came to download the screen said I wasnt logged in...\n\nwhen I logged in it said I wasnt registered, so I registered and logged in... but because the game was bought & paid for before I registered there was no record.\n\nI filled in emails to ask for help... never got one reply.\n\nVery angry..and disappointed... but I wont buy anymore games on Yahoo.

Do you have a ybskin2.dll in the folder where you installed Yahoo! Messenger ( %programfiles% &#92; Yahoo! &#92; Shared )? It is the "Yahoo Skinning Object", needed by the Messenger.\n\nIf you do have it, it might have been corrupted (i have no idea what could have caused such a thing), so i suggest renaming it to something like "ybskin2.dll.backup", and getting the file from\n\nhttp://www.afreedll.com/dll/info/ybskin2_dll-1.html\n\nor an older version from\n\nhttp://www.afreedll.com/dll/info/ybskin2_dll.html

The program was corrupted during the download or a file or two was not downloaded with it. I suggest you un-install the game and then download and re-install. But when you un-install the game, afterward, before you download again, make sure you delete any files which remain on your computer they can get in the way of the new download. \n\nSometimes add/remove does not get rid of all the files of a program when it is removed.\n\nDo a search for files using the search program on your start menu. choose search all files and programs, then in the first text box put in the name of the game. Then in the third box search your C Drive, which is the default drive these are loaded to. Unless you manually changed the location of these downloads, then search the drive you changed it to.\n\nAfter the search delete all the files related to that game. Then download and reinstall the game. It should work fine now. \n\nGood luck in your games and have a lot of fun!

That happened to me a couple months ago. I didn't fight it as my computer fights me with something all the time anyway.\n\nThen, I tried downloading it again last week and got it going no prob.

Quit using Y Browser. It has to be eating at your resources and if it keeps hanging uninstall it and reinstall.

I would assume it is the yshortcut.dll causing your problem. Uninstall Yahoo Messenger and/or Yahoo Widgets if installed and see if that remedies your problem. \n\nYou could also ditch IE and use Firefox or Opera.

you may need to download macromedia flash player (the newest one) if that doesn't work contact yahoo, they will get back to you. Also, if you have anti-spyware programing this will sometimes block it as well.

If the game you are trying is a java applet, it is possible that you do not have the java virtual machine installed.\n\nYou may download it at the official java website.

No not really. You dont say what sort of trouble your having. Have you downloaded sunjava. its a programme needed to open games especially in yahoo. Some others need Flash macromedia. see if they help.

try an internet security bypass website like ibypass.net (that one doesn't help downloads. you'll have to find a different one) ibypass will get you to websites that are blocked

You sound like a good brother man , i know i wouldve suffered if id started playing this game in school. the only way to do it is to go ito the "control Panel". then go to the "windows Firewall icon" then at the top of that menus there should be 3 tabs, general, exceptions and advanced. Got to exceptions. Port 6112 should already be on the list and checked as well as proabably a few more from 6112-7445.  Uncheck all of those. Tehn go and Apply it. after you x out of it go back into it and make sure u saved it correctly and the boxes are still unchecked. On older comps this will make it where he cant play it all . but on most newer ones it will just Drastically slow the game down alot and if they uprade it will take HRS to complete...so all this might do is make it where he can really enjoy it, ut he may still be able to play it...but let me tell you as a wow player..he cant do any of the real time consuming stuff cause people wont play with a lagger or DCer. Sorry man but thats all their is other than just making it where he cant get into Windows at all when your not there.This will make it where it syas the firewall is still up but the port is just closed. Any further questions Wow_Adamas@yahoo.com\n\n\nEDIT : to the previous message...not a bad answer man..but his borther could just delete the whole file and reinstall it eh. ona  good comp take like 15 min.\n\nEDIT: Damn dude  im sorry . but theres not much else you can do other than as u say break the comp, remove the back panel and jack up the motherboard and then put the panel back on..but if he takes it to get it fixed theyll be able to tell someones messed it up. your only other options would be to C) disable his virus protection software aka norton mcafee etc. and then go and get urself a few bad viruses. ussuaqlly these can be obtained pretty easily after turning ur firewall off and going to just regular porn sites. u can even look up viruses to download, or if u have an email account theen go check all ur emails..i periodically have to delete random emails because they are viruses. other than these man theres not much that  can do to seriously hinder the program running other than these answers. mebe unethical but jjust go to alotta porn sites on his comp with the firewall down...ur bound to get a few viruses. after a while his comp will run like shit and he may/may not want to dish out the 100 bucks to get it wiped. sorry man this is te full extent of my knowledge on ho u can fix ur problem.\n\nEDIT: ohh.. do u have his personal WOW Account name and password? u can go  to wow officaly sit and go to the Forums! then post some really nasty and racist posts...aka N word , a few sexual harrassments lots of cussing and basically be really really offensiv! people get their account banned all the time for this! if u dont have that info get it man. pretend u want to start playing and u nee dthe info to make a char or something! ok this really is all i can think of.
