Yahoo Mesenger issue has comeback
Recently I thought I had a Yahoo Messenger issue conquered. The computer I was working on had an issue where typing on Yahoo Messenger when you hit send it would disappear, but the recipient would see it, but when they sent an answer back it could not be seen either. But when the user went on Yahoo Messenger the next day, it would work perfectly. Then the next day the messages would disappear. Similar thing is happening with Yahoo email. I checked for Malware, nothing. I uninstalled and re-installed Yahoo applications, no change. I disabled Yahoo add-ins on IE, still the issue keeps happening. Running Windows 7 32 bit. Any ideas??

and I note you checked for malware, what did you use?
ASKER
Malwarebytes and Spybot S & D. I didn't use Combofix because it is Windows 7 and supposedly Combofix doesn't work on Windows 7.
I know they do say it's not supposed to work. I have used it without isse on x64 and x86. Nevermind if spybot didn't find anything it's not likely malware then. Have you tried refreshing the desktop after it disappears, and could you locate the process in Task Manager?

I have run Malwarebutes, Spybot, I have uninstalled all Yahoo and re-installed twice. I called Yahopo support and they said they know what it is and want to charge $70 for it. Any other thoughts?

I missed your suggestion concerning JAVA. I will try that.
