Answer:
Do you know which anti-virus/firewall software you are using? I only ask because I had been using CA Internet Security Suite 2008 for some time, and noticed that I was having difficulties with my computer. One of those issues was that I couldn't download Messenger 9, and another (more major) one was that I periodically couldn't boot up my pc. I finally un-installed that software, and installed Norton Internet Security. No more boot problems, and I have had success downloading and installing Messenger 9. I hope that helps.

Stupid security, I'm going to guess. There's no virus with Yahoo messenger or anything. Just disable your security.
Messenger 9 for Vista users and XP users with 9, Mess 9 has many unsolved problems and missing features that messenger 8 has. Plus now the updated Windows Firewall will not let Messenger download correctly.And is causing 9 and 8.1 users to have problems now.. The only option that might help is going to the control panel and turning off the firewall to download and install then turning it back on.Then click on windows fire wall, Exceptions tab. make sure messenger is checked,if not listed then add it to the list.then click save. .If the fire wall still causes problems,then revert back to 8.0 or 7.5 these and all versions of messenger can be found here; http://www.freecreed.com/ymsgr-archive.html You need to remove version 9or present version, 1st to get another version to work. To remove Messenger version Use Unwise located middle of page of Messenger Folder.. Your contacts are stored online But if you want to save your old messages archives,they are saved on your PC in the messenger file you are about to delete.Go here and copy them to a new folder Start>my computer>c:drive>program files>yahoo>messenger>profiles>(your ID)>archive>messages The latest update for Flash Player to #10 Is causing things to not load or Messenger just crashes upon opening..Use the link below for a download of Flash player # 9.0.124.0 . You have to remove the present flash player,add/remove programs in control panel,Reboot then download from here. http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
