Yahoo messenger wont download to computer, it freeze when download, Everything else work and d/l why not yahoo?

I am having the same problem, keep Messenger 8 till they fix 9 is all I can suggest. If you already deleted it then your screwed like me because they no longer offer the download for 8.

Hi I have messenger 9 and it works great Sounds like you may have tried to download with a dirty browser or failed to check the Messenger file was empty before uploading your new messenger suggest you download and run ccleaner first before you proceed further. Run it through a couple of times - include "registry" from the left hand toolbar. Do not be alarmed at the amount of files you have to delete, especially if you do not clear it on a regular basis Use this path to uninstall and remove the old messenger software. > Start > computer > local disc (C) > program files > yahoo > messenger > UNWISE. UNWISE is the command that starts uninstall. Make sure the file is clean before downloading - I run messenger 9 with no problems although I read here its"full of bugs" but thats because its not been installed cleanly. Check in this file after uninstalling to make sure no fragments of software remain. Delete shortcut on desktop Download new freeware browser - mozilla firefox Restart computer Download the version of messenger you want using firefox http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/ http://www.filehippo.com/download_firefox/ http://www.filehippo.com/download_yahoo_messenger All the old versions of yahoo are on Filehippo, use the links for the version you want 9 was developed to improve operation behind firewalls.

It used to happen on my old computer but I never found out how to fix it!
