Where can I get a old version of Yahoo IM ?? I have a new computer and can’t use the new version of Yahoo IM.And now I can’t IM all my friends or family.How is Yahoo going to fix this problem ? If they have something that works why change it? My Motto is ” If It Isn’t Broke Don’t Fix It”!!!

Yahoo Messenger 7 sucks, It keeps saying (Add Request Pending) even after adding a contact 10 times. Its high time that Yahoo Messenger 8 is released. Yo man, MSN messenger rocks:)

(Quote) “I just downloaded the new version of messenger, and I can not get it to accept my jpeg display pic. it is also froze in â€œdo not show display imageâ€ but I can use my avatar if I want. (Comment by James â€” 22nd Aug 2005 @ 04:15 am)”

I have this problem, too. And that’s the way to solve it: You must send something to let YM connect to its server, it’ll update your config then.

Actually I do: Change the pix (unsuccessfully, it stays the same); Talk to myself (Ctrl + M > Other Contact > myowncontactname). After some seconds, the pix will change as expected.

When using MSCONFIG click on the OK button once you are done with your selections. You will be giving a choice to RESTART or EXIT WITHOUT RESTART. Do the RESTART. When the the computer reboots you will see a window telling you changes have been made to the System configuration utility. There will be a checkbox to not show this warning in the future, click on it to put a check in it.

Once you have the new YIM installed you will want to reenable your startup items. You will do that through MSCONFIG.

Also if you use the MSCONFIG method the computer will keep on rebooting in safe mode until you go back in there and remove the check from the safe mode checkbox.

Hello all,
Had a friend with the Dll error. I went into msconfig and disabled all of the startup items. I them booted into safe mode with networking (didn’t need networking because I saved the installation file to the desktop and I was able to upgrade his YIM to version 7.

To open msconfig go to START Button > RUN > type msconfig in the box and click on OK button > Window opens > click on Startup tab > click on Disable all button.

Get into safe mode 2 ways; Reboot computer and hit the F8 key every 2 seconds, will bring up screen with choices, use up or down arrow to choose safe mode or safe mode with networking. You can also use MSCONFIG, go into Boot.ini tab and choose SAFE MODE checkbox and then choose Network radio button.
