Do you have a firewall running? There is a good possibility your yahoo messenger program is being blocked, but your browser is not.

I think there was some slight problem with Yahoo's login pages earlier. try again, it should be ok now.

I can't get into mine either. Messenger seems to be having a few problems of late but apparently they're fixing it. Must be gremlins in the system again.

How do you mean "log me on"? Well, you have to go to your programs and start Yahoo Messenger and then you need to type in your ID and Password.

There could be a problem with your internet connection or with Instant Messengers server.  Try turning off Instant Messenger and then signing on again.

You won't be able to sign into Yahoo Messenger if you have forgotten the password for your email. It is all used as the same 'Yahoo ID' You will need to get a new ID and try no to forget the password.

The probable cause could be you have a firewall client installed in your computer. Try disabling it before connecting to Yahoo messenger

To fix the Windows error, you'll have to verify your copy of Windows again. The easiest way to do this is through their online verification page, failing that you'll need to call them.\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/genuine/downloads/whyValidate.aspx\n\nThe Yahoo Messenger error sounds like it's something bad in the cache. Unistall YIM, clear your temp files and internet cache, and then re-install YIM.\n\nOne easy way of clearing it is using a free program to do it all automatically. My personal preference is: \nCCleaner\nhttp://www.ccleaner.com/\n\nHope this helps.
