What is wrong with Yahoo Instant Messenger 10?

For some time now people have been asking the same question with very little help - so, lets try again to get an answer - Does anyone know what is wrong with Yahoo Instant Messenger 10 lately. You can type a message during a conversation and when you hit enter to send - NO text appears in either window. This has been going on for some time now - any one know the answer..or what the problem is.?

Update:

Emma - Yep! Done all that - unistalled - reinstalled - no change at all. I am guessing it is yet another glitch in the system that Yahoo have no idea how to fix

Update 2:

Thanks Daddybear - mail sent - It now appears that it is a fault within the Yahoo software that they don't appear to be able to fix - they finally replied to an email sent with a solution - guess what, the solution does not work. Can Yahoo please roll back the clock to IM 8 - that worked OK

    There is so many possibilities to this question -malware -support software -IE problems

    etc etc

    Hopefully you can respond to my email

    Just for the record the Yahoo Messenger uninstall software is not worth a light and if you used a program like "Revo" you would appreciate the amount of files and Registry entries that get left behind after using it from the control panel. In Advanced Mode it scans the C drive and Registry allowing you to delete everything it finds omitting the possibility of conflicts with the incoming software.

    The download for the free version is at the bottom of the Freeware column

    I've given up with Messenger 10 - I came to the conclusion that it was having a fight with my anti virus and the two just weren't compatible

    That's just my guess
