I got this error message when I tried to open my Yahoo! Messenger:
CLayoutEngine-Tooltip: YMSGR_~1.EXE - Application Error
Instruction at "0x1002cfe2" referenced memory at "0xffffffff". The memory could not be read. Click on OK to terminate the program

Then after that when I double click the shortcut icon of yahoo messenger it never opens...
I tried opening it in its location but its no use.
I tried re-installing it but its no use.
I tried to restart my computer then installing but its no use either.
I tried to repair it but it displays a dialog box to enter the pathname to the installation file and I don't know what to enter there.
I tried to download a different installer and an installer for a newer version but the same error appears when the installation is about to complete. >> Application Error

What does this mean and what should I do to make my messenger work again? Thanks!

Sounds like you may have contracted a nasty on board according to what I read. Mine is still running smooth.  Very Happy

Try this on line scan.

 Or here is a good one to use also.

Best of luck then reload the lastest version I'd say.
Yahoo! Messenger 9.0.0.1389 Beta

clean your registry to start a fresh installation... try using revo uninstaller, as mentioned in other post, it is able to track all the registry entries that is considered related to a software... so using this with yahoo messenger might solve the problem...
