Keymastersounds like a bad download on the installer of the version – tis becoming an issue of late on winzip thats assuming that you downloaded it thru a download manager eg – Download accel.
Heres my suggestion since Im assuming you downloaded it from Yahoo messenger and didnt save it or possibly updated it. Is to direct download and try again.
Since the error was

MemberI KNOW there’s an easy answer to this, but durn, I’ve forgotten AND can’t find it again. 🙁
I agree it sounds like a problem with the install file – I’d suggest download it direct from http://us.dl1.yimg.com/download.yahoo.com/dl/msgr75/us/ymsgr75us.exe – preferably using no download accelerator or manager, AND even with your antivirus program disabled while you do the download.
Once downloaded, run this install file, and cross your fingers.June 21, 2006 at 8:54 pm #143395IM911gr

Used the link above and downloaded (no accel, firefox ‘manager’, and did not turn off Norton AV). Installed in less than 2 mins. msgr75us.exe was only 320K so should have smelled a rat but … Thanks again
