If the Yahoo security update page says you do not need any upgrades, then don't install it. If you need any upgrades for Yahoo Messenger, then the security update page will tell you.

I'm not sure if this is the same message that Jeff posted about the other week.

The only problem is it is only happening when I use multi-gold. Which lets you run multiple instances of yahoo messenger.
