How do you get a Yahoo! messenger?

How can I get into my yahoo messenger?

• Every time I try to get into my yahoo messenger it will not let me get in and I have a few people on my Yahoo Messenger, What do I do ? do I get another email address and go from thereor what please tell me because I have been trying to chat with someone that is out state and I have been told that; someone has been asking about me and wants to chat. Plus it gives me the invisible messenger and I do not want to be invisible messenger, because I want to let the people who has been writing to my messenger that I am around and Or so I can write back to them. Please let me know what I can do please email at [email protected]. I am going nuts this nonscense, do you do what i am talking about ?

Do u kno

• Answer:

  Details please. Are you able to get to the sign in screen where you type your name and password? If not, what happens if you try? If you get past that and do get signed in, what happens? Your question is confusing. There is no invisible Messenger, there is an option to log on as invisible in the sign in window, but that option can be unchecked before logging in. It sounds to me like you aren't logging in at all, just opening the program and expecting to be able to send messages with it. You have to sign in to it just like any other Yahoo! service.
