Yahoomessenger.exe 100% cpu usage

[KhangHy]

Hi everyone, since last week i dunno why but when i have signed with my username on yahoo yahoomessenger.exe 100% cpu usage. I have downloaded the version 8.0.0.711 too but still the same thing. The problem is that when i tried to sign in with a different user it does ot use 100% cpu usage. It only with that one username, i tried to signin on a different computer with that user still the same thing. Is there something wrong with my yahoo account??


thank

Is your computer an older one? If so, that may be why Yahoo is using 100% resources.

Hi KhangHy,

Suggest trying this

then download the newest 8.0.0716 build and try then.

my computer is 2.3 GHz and 1gb of ram. I did what u suggested Dermot but it still the same thing. It only happen with one username any other username is fine

Then check the permissions.Also may be try some good antivirus.There may be 2 reason for this:-
1.Memory full(that u have enough)
2.Virus,malware or spyware

Hi Khanghy,

Does the same id have problems logging into yahoo on other software bar messenger?

Try logging into Yahoo! Chat in Internet Explorer

See if it is able to login then.

Try chat with a different IM name, I think your being booted. That is all I can think why you would use 100% cpu.

yahoo messenger is getting really weird. Now when i tried to signed in it gives error msg: "unable to login to yahoo messenger", I tried to signed in with different user it worked fine.
