This happened to me yesterday, I had to go into system restore, back to a date last week where I knew it worked great. Try that and see what happens. It should solve your problem.

This is what worked with MSN Messenger:\n1. Open up Messenger\n2. Tools > Options\n3. Preferences\n4. Uncheck "Run Windows Messenger when Windows Starts\n\nOpen up Yahoo Messenger and look for something similar

Check your connection. Messenger should have a link in the bottom that checks what's wrong. Check the proxy in your msn, if you have a firewall it might have started to block it or just block the proxy and doesn't let you connect.good luck

Hi,\n\nThere are 2 reasons for this as I know it from my experience.\n\n1) Cookies, Try clearing your cookies, set your adware & malware programs to do that & also you IE to do it. Though this problem is very unlikely Yahoo & MS these days are acting cranky with all their Beta's going around.\n\n2) Your firewall is definitely the culprit. Try disabling your firewall & restart the messenger service. Remember you must end the service through taksmanager first & then restart the messenger from your start menu.\n\nApart from this if all these fail then try this. Log in to your yahoo account from IE or whichever browser you are using & go to account settings. Change your password there & signout. Relogin from your browser & logout. Now restart you messenger & try it.\n\nGood luck.

Try uninstalling, then use Registry Mechanic or anything of the sort to delete all Yahoo! Registry files, and then delete the Yahoo! Messenger (if it still exists)...\n\nThis is to guarantee that there is no settings saved by Yahoo! Available on the PC...\n\nThen try installing it again...\n\nIf it works but doesn't log-in, then check if Yahoo! is permitted to access the internet or not...check that in your Firewall Application...

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

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.

What OS are you running? I'm using Windows XP Professional SP2 and that's never happened to me. Maybe you are using Windows Live Messenger 7.5 instead of the latest 8.0. Definitely send feedback to MSN.\nHere's the link for feedback:\n\nhttp://feedback.live.com/eform.aspx?productkey=wlmail&mkt=en-us

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
