Are you using Yahoo Messenger in a browser like Firefox, or are you running a application on your computer?

So let me get this straight. You downloaded an intallation file for Yahoo Measenger with a browser, ran it and installed the program. Now it doesn't work, right? If this sounds right, this has nothing to do with Firefox. You'll have to consult Yahoo Support. If it installed a plugin so you could use extra features or something on a Yahoo Messenger page (this is pretty unlikely), this has to do with Firefox but you should still head over to Yahoo Support instead of here.
