Do you do your monthly Windows or Microsoft Updates?  I was Googling your
error message and found this old archived thread
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg02798.html
about this same issue and the person had an older version of IE7 and when
they updated to the latest version, it fixed the script error.  That is why
I asked what version of IE.  The latest version of IE7, AFIK, is
7.0.5730.11.  Check to see if you have that version or an earlier one.
Nearly all of the Googled forum threads about this IE error were dated back
in February and March which further makes me believe you have an older
version of IE7.

Also check to see if you have the latest version of Java.  A good tool to
use to check and see if you have current version of vulnerable programs is
to run the Secunia Software Inspector...

"Secunia has updated the Secunia Software Inspector with new rules for
detecting insecure software.

Run the Secunia Software Inspector to make sure that your system is
up-to-date:
http://secunia.com/software_inspector/";

Run the thorough search but just because SSI says your software is unsecure,
it doesn't mean it's 100% accurate... it just means that newer version are
available.  For example, SSI says my YM version 7.5 is unsecure but that's
simply not true since my computer is locked down pretty tight.  I guess if I
was running 7.5 on an unsecured computer, then things could get dicey. 

SSI will at least let you know if you have old versions of critical software
like Java, Adobe, Flash, etc., so you can update them as needed.  If you
don't know how to update various software, let me know and I'll type out
more detailed instructions but you can check Java by going here...
http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp  Click the Verify Installation
button and it will let you know if you have the current version.  Java is
very important to keep updated and you should check for updates on a monthly
basis since hackers are constantly trying to create hacks via Java.

        Maybe you should go back to YM version 7.5.0.819 which is what I
still use
        and it's pretty stable on my relatively new computer. You can get it
at
        http://www.filehippo.com/download_yahoo_messenger/ or at one of the
many
        other program download sites. It sounds like your problems came when
you
        upgraded to version 8 and then you tried the beta 9 which is not the
thing
        to do when having problems. Beta programs almost always have
glitches.

        I had messenger 8 and all of a sudden started getting an internet
explorer
        script error, I upgraded to messenger 9 and I am still getting the
error. I
        have gone through yahoo help and tried to fix the problem suggested
by
        others and nothing is fixing it.
        
        I know lots of others have this problem..how can I or is there a way
to fix
        it?
