my yahoo messenger automatically closes when i type my yahoo id and click sign in can anybody tell why that happens

I'm having such a similar problem. . .

yes so, am having the same probs too.i think it this dail up stuff that we are using.
its jst started recently.can anyone help!!!!

Could be virus. just uninstall and reinstall it again. it works becos it happened to me too.

I have tried that soo many times all to no avail. . .

Use www.meebo.com. You can sign your yahoo chat from here without actually using the messenger. I hope this advice will be helpful

there must be a way to resolve this problem, without signing into yahoo messenger through another means. help is this needed i think we all should go into research on google to find out what cause the closing of the yahoo messenger and how it can be prevented and corrected.
thanks

It happened to me once what i did was uninstall,wipe out every previous trace of the messenger from you registry you can do this by using C.Cleaner or doing so manually with REGEDIT command in the run menu. Then reinstall the application.

i hope it works o. , . . .coz am aving the same problem wiith yahoo messenger,opera and my task manager

I had the same problem. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and cleaning my registry but the only thing that worked was turning on the logging option and reporting the problem to yahoo under "help". It took about a week before they forwarded the problem to an engineer who fixed it. So I guess it was something on their end. With YIM tech support you have to be persistent and patient. They might not get back to you right away.

download new messenger from the net, uninstall the current one running on tour pc, then disconnect from the net and install it set the connection to "no proxies. try it could help mine is up and running again. bestluck

@Ocheje
I am also a victim of the Yahoo Messenger malady. I have applied your prescription and the symptoms still persist.

@all
Please let's continue researching for a more permanent solution to this problem. What's internet without YIM?

The solution is for u to go to ur windows directory and search of all .ocx and .dll file without date or the one wit malicious date it work for me hope it does for every one thanks

quadillo ur suggestions did not make any sence if we find the dll files what do we do with them remember dll files are system files that when u delete the wrong one ur system might not boot to windows so please expanciate.
meanwhile i ve tried all solutions but nothing seems to be working
please suggestions are still wanted.

In Addition i suggest you login to www.ebuddy.com for better chat! or whenever it's close just keep trying,

a recent proble in my office was cured when I installed AVG 8.0. anti virus
try it out hope it works for u too

if you are using the latest version uninstall it and install older version like 7 or 6

the problem mostly occurs on the new version.

if u want to use the full features of ur yahoo mesenger, you can go to webmessenger.yahoo.com - u dont need to install a yahoo messenger on your system to chat just go to this URL and log-in

i suggest you install the old version yahoo meant be working on the new version, or keep trying till its open up.

i think this occcurs when u try to download from the net, it 's better to load from a disc, in the mean time,why dont u chat from www.ebuddy.com, its easier than meebo and u can chat on all netwirks, i think u shud giv it a try,thats wat i use

. . .This is Wonderful  Just 4 Yahoo Messenger?

I read an English forum an guys there explained that it is a registry virus inversion! In fact what they say i will do to get over it are a kind on many, but out of all, the first step which is downloading ASVAST anti virus and running a boot scan, solved my problem! In three systems!
The thing is that the virus scan will start before windows start, and from the prompt I choose "DELETE".

Hey sorry suckas you have been infected by the KAVO.exe, hihi and guess what the good news is you cant get rid of it, its permanent, your best bet is to re-format your HDD

okay heres a simple trick i use, start up task manager using ctrl+alt del, and end the process explorer.exe. Then start the task explorer.exe again, now you should be able to use yahoo IM easily,

TRYING TO OPEN TASK MANAGER USING CTRL + ALT + DEL BUT I GOT A MESSAGE PROPT TASK MANAGER DISSABLE BY ADMINISTRATOR.
PLS HOW DO I ENABLE MY TASK MANAGER?

there are a lot of solutions to this but i'll give u the easiest and believe me it works. i tested it myself. ok. Just login with another id and uncheck the remember password options, then relogin with yours and rember to uncheck remember password. simple. that should do the trick.
