I am having trouble opening my yahoo messenger.?
I have it set to open automatically, but it fails to do that even though I know the password is correct. When I try to access it manually, sometimes it works, but more times than not that doesn't work either? What am I doing wrong? Help!

Your not doing anything wrong many are having the same problem . If this is something that is a recent issue for you just read all the other similar questions below . Just have to wait it out then they will fix it and it will probably be worse so wait longer then they will fix it again .

The problem is the web bots have developed something like speed dial for login. That means your account login is competing with something like 50 account logins from Sexygirl-sendmoney. Yahoo has not figured out an automatic way to screen them and isn't motivated by profit, so, there is no effort, either. You get what you pay for with system admins.

I am having the same trouble as well. I wish I had an answer for you. Yahoo! can be a frustrating mystery at times. Good luck.
