It keeps crashing on me. Whenever I try to change my status, click on one of the menu buttons, or the menus in the message box…crash. Tried uninstalling/reinstalling…but it’s still Beta.

I was having the same exact problem, and I posted a link. Amy, a Yahoo! Advisor asked if i was running Windows Blinds, which I was. You will need to go into WindowsBlinds and do a per application setting exclusion. It’s the top check mark for total exclusion. After you do it, you will need to close down and exit Yahoo! Messenger, and sign in again. It should work now!!
