I think you've downloaded the Yahoo toolbar as well. On the Yahoo Tool bar there is a tab looks like a blue picture frame or a computer screen. Do a left click on there. You'll see "enable popup blocker once it's opened.

Your version of internet explorer isnt high enough. Yahoo messenger doesnt list this as a requirment but take my word, my neighbor just had the same trouble. Download internet explorer 6 and reboot. You should be good to go!

go to tools---- internet options-----privacy and uncheck pop up blocker

check the settings you may still be blocked-un-check the box and you should be your way.  \n\nAnother way is to delete it and then re-install it.  \n\nBe very careful in chat rooms.  They have been proved dangerous to your health

Well, there could be a couple reasons for this...\n\nFirst - You are probably running XP w/service pack 2 (check this by right clicking on My Computer and selecting properties, on the General Tab it will tell you). If this is the case...the firewall is probably on. If you open control panel, you will see "Windows Firewall" as one of the icons. Click on that, select the Exceptions tab, and you are going to make sure theire is a check in the box for your messenger. This should help....\n\nSecond - If this is an HP, Dell, Compaq, or other big chain PC, ther are probably running a virus/security suite. You do not want to have 2 firewalls running (unless you are paranoid). If you have this suite (Internet security or something like that) I would disable the firewall option and just go with the windows version (or you can disable the windows and go with the other)...\n\nEither of these should fix your problem with the messenger, now for the mail issue.\n\nIf you are running Outlook Express, there is a setting to disable attachments. You can check this by clicking on tools --> options, then click on the security tab. There will be 2 radials and 2 boxes.. the second box is what you might want to uncheck..\n\nHope this helps ....

Click "Start" in the bottom left corner, Look for something called "Control Panel" and double-click it. Then from there, find something that says "Add/Remove Programs" or something along those lines...Look at the list, find the Messenger and remove it. If you neet a more technical answer, I can give you one. Lol.

Windows ME is the worst windows ever made... Seriously. Are you sure it's solely the messenger's fault? I'd look for spyware and viruses as well... But you never know.

There may two problems...\n1. Check the settings of the Norton Anti-spyware provided by yahoo... if it has any setting that says "firewall enabled", then disable it.\n\n2. Go the the Control Panel, and then to Windows Firewall( switch to the Classic View if using XP ). Then disable the firewall while using the chat program.\n\n(3.) You may try using Yahoo messenger for chatting ... maybe the Firewall will allow it( after all the firewall was enable by yahoo!! ;-) )\n\nYours\nThe Bazeegar

Control Panel can show you an icon for your firewall, if you are using Service Packs and are using the windows firewall. But if you are running internet security software like Norton, McAfee, SystemSuite, you can click on the icon on the botom left corner of the screen to open a menu that gives you the option to disable  firewall. My advice is not to disable it, but lower security settings just enough to download messenger so that your computer has some protection.\n\nGood luck!

It would be unwise for you to remove the firewall.  All firewall programs allow you to give "exceptions" to sites that you want to have a two way interaction through the firewall.  The link below covers this issue; go to "step 5: known issues" to see how to allow MSN Messenger to opperate with your firewall.  Your firewall is your friend; it is trying to protect you.  Let it protect you and allow MSN Messenger at the same time!

This might not help, but trying won't do any harm...\n\nOpen your messenger and click on preferences (or hold Ctrl+Shift+P), and select the connections option.\nIf it's set to No proxies, change it to Firewall with no proxies, then select your connection settings, press apply then try to connect again.\nIf this doesn't work then try playing around with the preferences, but remember to return it to the original settings if nothing fixes the problem.\nIf all else fails, uninstall and re-install again, and if that fails contact Yahoo messenger help (F1 in messenger).\n\nGood luck!

try setting the connection preferences -> firewall with no proxies\n\n(you can do this when signing in - by clicking up on the left on the Messenger button, or after you've signed in in the same way, except you'll go like that: Messenger-> Preferences-> Connection)\n\nhope it works! it worked for me! ;)

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.

go to your control panel and then click on the Add/Remove Programs icon and then click on the Add/Remove Windows Components tab on the left side of the screen and there will be a list of programs. Uncheck the box next to the Windows messenger icon click next and that should take care of it. \nbbug
