Why can't I download Yahoo messenger?

Why cant i download Yahoo Messenger 8.1?

  • i am downloading yahoo messenger 8.1 but i cant download it because of some problems popping along the installation period. it is either the installation will stop and a alert will appear saying that the installation was canceled, then when i press retry it will be stucked on 100% but the messenger was not downloaded. another problem is from 2% it will jump to 100%. i wonder what the problem is

There are problems with YM 8.1 and 9.0 beta Download an older version ie 7.0 works well for me!! Uninstall your current one before you re-install the older version! Hope this helps!

May try turning off your spy and virus programs they block downloads often.Things you must be doing.Must download in the administrators account.If you are the admin make sure your signed in on that account.A lot of people have trouble downloading 8.1 and 9 Me i would stick with the one that i know works.Messenger 7 http://au.messenger.yahoo.com
