MemberI am having a bit of trouble with Yahoo! Messenger….every time I try to run it, it immediately closes out after about 1 or 2 seconds of being open. If anyone has any light to shed on this, it would be much appreciated.

p.s i’ve tried different solutions like uninstall and then reinstall the program, i also deleted the cache folder etc but none of them work..can yall help me?

MemberThis has been addressed in other posts. The most common problem is a customizing program called Windowblinds. It changes the appearance of windows. It seems to not be compatible with Yahoo Messenger 7.

MemberMost people have a customizing program only have problems when they start using the latest version of Messenger.
You will not lose your contacts, Yahoo saves them on their servers. Not your computer.
