Yahoo Messenger Crash....

Discussion in 'General Chat' started by 3T's, Jun 2, 2005.

    Downloaded around a week or so ago, Yahoo Messenger, and for some reason it is not even working on this system today....sorta as it may have crashed or became corrupted. Anyways, I completely uninstalled it and then downloaded/saved the application. Before reinstalling it, is there a caution(s) or tip(s) I should be aware of....?

    When I mentioned above that I completely uninstalled it, that was within the registy also....Am I to assume that I may have to log on and re-register Yahoo Messenger?

    3T's....

    P.S. Up to the crash, Yahoo Messenger was working just fine....

    i tried this link and it proved usefull
    i too couldn't use messenger 6 or 7, beta or final, because it crashed
    http://www.helpbytes.co.uk/cproblems.php#crash

    it says there

    'Ypager crashes or performs an illegal operation on startup or right click
    This error occurs because you are using a third party skinning application that modifies the Windows Look/Interface.
    You need to either remove the program, or open the settings, and disable the skinning of Yahoo! Messenger / YPager.
    Two known programs to cause this are Window Blinds and AlienGUIse. Window Blinds has a "per application" setting to override this.'

    i was using win blinds, then created a special rule for yahoo messenger

    i really hope this is usefull

    I am new to this forum--but I am having the same problem with my Yahoo Messenger--tried downloading and installing an older version--it still crashes on a right click. I can't get any response from Yahoo. I have tried everything--even re-formatted my hard drive. Had Yahoo working for 3 days, then it started crashing again. When you find out which version is the one that doesn't crash, please reply to this post. Thanks

    Yahoo Crashes every time I get on the damn thing, so does all of my Browsers, MSN and AIM did as well until I Upgraded to Windows Live Messenger in place of MSN and Downgraded from AIM Triton to the original AIM Build

    --My Dignity love and Heart have all been destroyed, they crashed as a Metior into the Ground of Earth as if a Cataclismic Catastrophy hath Occurred, they call me Laviathan, the one in Pain, and in recent years, I have nothing but Crashed Dignity--

    I suggest that you get the new version. I also removed the ads by editing regedit
