Best thing to do is to go to add and remove and take it out, after that do a search from the green start button, type in yahoo messenger and see if there are any bits left in your pc, if there are remove these too and then re-install messenger, I never install the toolbars, and I would advise you to do so too.  Best of luck

It is not your computer, Yahoo put out a non-functional beta version of messenger for some reason. Uninstall it. Get version 7.0 or older (which actually works) from here\nhttp://www.oldapps.com/yahoo_messenger.htm\nAlso, make sure you have the latest version of Java, which is needed for some Yahoo things to work. Get that here\nhttp://www.java.com/en/download/windows_xpi.jsp

Win XP comes with windows Messenger already installed. what u can do is go to Administrative Tools and then services and then stop the Messenger service. If u have urself installed WIndows Messenger's latest version like 7.0 etc. u can use control panel-add remove programs to remove the messenger. -\nPlease exercise caution before taking this step.

You may need to upgrade to a newer version of Messenger. I had that problem too until I did. Or do I have the wrong idea of what your asking. You may need to close one of those before the window will come up (blocked?)

Uninstall your Java and reboot your computer. Start Messenger and/or games tot check if working.\nDownload new Java from (link below) and do clean install. Everything should keep working properly.

Check to see what version you have by going to help then about. If it is 7.5 it might not work with your computer (it is a very buggy version) if you do have 7.5 uninstall it and then go to \nhttp://www.oldapps.com/yahoo_messenger.htm and get version 7.0

Yahoo messenger which installS online normally have problems or bugs because, when it downloads files from yahoo, either due to connectivity problems or something else, the messenger does not get properly installed.\n\nIt is better to have a full-version install, then an online install\n(i too used online install on my win XP, but i had the same problem, so it is better to have a full-version setup file saved on the comp).

Reinstall Yahoo Messenger...it only takes a couple seconds.  If you don't have the .exe file, download it from the main Yahoo page.
