I dont get any verification
Once you've selected a Chat room, you'll be brought to the Chat room window where you'll see yourYahoo! IDlisted as well as the Messenger Chat Administrator. You won't see anyone else listed in the Chat room until you've passed the verification process. To do this you'll need to click the verificationlink given in the Chat room window. The "Chat Room Verification" window opens, where you can enter the word verification text (please note that this text is not case sensitive).
If you don't see the "Chat Room Verification" window load when clicking on the verification link, this is maybe because you currently have pop-up blocker software installed.

I had downloaded Yahoo Messenger awhile back..and is not coming up when I tried to open it..
I'm going to guess you're computer is running on Windows. I'm using Windows 7 and but the other versions will be very similar. I would recommend removing Messenger and reloading it. Click on the Start button and choose 'Control Panel' from the pop-up window. Under 'Programs' click on 'Uninstall a Program'. Go down the list and find 'Yahoo Messenger' probably at the very bottom since they are listed alphabetically. Right click on in and select 'Uninstall/Change'. Follow the instructions to uninstall. Then go to Yahoo and download a clean version of Messenger. I hope this helps
Firewall stops me using yahoo messenger
Uninstall or disable any security software running on your computer. Try restarting your computer in safe mode with networking and then installing. If all of the above doesn't works and still you were getting message for firewall then either disable your Router's firewall by opening Router's page or Bypass router for a while and connect directly to Modem and then Install.
Unable to Install Yahoo! Messenger Firewall Issue or What?
The problem is with the Yahoo uninstall software which fails to clear the old Messenger folder out and creates conflicts with the incoming new software - Your firewall doesn't know whats happening and hoists a red flag. If you had not started to uninstall I would have recommend you download revo and uninstall with that.

I found the answer its so simple, The problem has nothing to do with firewalls.
Yahoo instant messenger (yim) needs internet explorer 7 or above version to
enable yim to operate properly with the current yim versions. If you have an
earlier version of IE (I was using IE 6 coz I always use firefox and did not
have windows update enabled coz I did not want my windows operating system to be
revealed as it was copied and theredore not legit) So I disabled windows update
and kept using firefox, but even if you never use internet explorer, yim still
needs internet explorer 7 to operate without these errors shown above. I tried
to fix it for weeks thinking it was fiewall or such, but it just needed IE 7 so
I downloaded it here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-au/download/internet-explorer-7-details.aspx
and even tho it says its for a windows server it still worked on my windows
XP pro 64bit and now yim is working properly, allowing multiple copies of
contacts etc, no problems at all now. I also downloaded firefox version 35,
which helps yim too coz its yahoo preferred.
