Am having huge problems downloading messenger softwares onto my laptop. I have tried yahoo, msn and aol. So far I have managed to download firefox and internet explorer is working fine too. However I cannot get it to download msn messenger or install yahoo messenger properly. AIM seemed to install with no problem at all. I have tried lots of versions and have had no luck at all.

Would appreciate any suggestions

thanks in advance

thanks I have deleted everything and now I have hooked my laptop up with my broadband connection. Previously I was using wi-fi from a UK mobile phone provider. Now I have downloaded Yahoo and MSN with no problems. Am going to download Skype later. Seems it was the connection that was the problem and it seems to be resolved now.

Many thanks
