Yahoo Messenger question

For the life of me I cannot download yahoo messenger. Any ideas why not? I've
had people tell me that I cannot because my computer is a 32-bit and not a
64-bit. I've had people tell me to turn off my firewall, then download it.
I've been told to try the beta 9.0 version, and yet nothing works. It keeps
telling me that "Installation failed due to open windows" and the only open
window that I have down in the taskbar is my People PC one.

Please can anyone help me??????????

Many thanks, god Bless

hello.. I will give you some alternatives here.. try them and some might
work

Alternate download links and solutions>>>>

special Vista edition of yahoo messenger
http://messenger.yahoo.com/windowsvista.php

Direct link to version 9 beta (full installer)
http://us.dl1.yimg.com/download.yaho...900_797_us.exe

all versions alternate links (see the right side bar for eariler versions
too)
http://www.filehippo.com/download_yahoo_messenger/

Use a download manager to download stuff better
www.freedownloadmanager.org

get a second browser, handy when your default one doesnt work
www.getfirefox.com

I am downloading the free download manager and then I will try the rest and
let you know. I always tell everyone that dolphins gives me peace and
tranquility---I just love them and have many items that have dolphins on them
or are figurines.
