    I did some research and found your solution on a Yahoo website. The link is provided below. If you need anymore help feel free to ask.

    Is your firewall on? Is your antivirus stopping it? Is your Yahoo pop-up blocker on? If you do not temporarily disable the Yahoo pop-up blocker, you won't see any message regarding problem loading. I have WindowsXP Home. Before I download or install anything new, I create a "system restore" point so I can return if I mess things up. Then, I temporarily disable firewall and pop-up blocker. Download to save to the desktop. After download, immediately enable firewall and pop-up blocker. Strongly suggest you run a scan. Then install from the desktop. Takes a few more minutes, but it's better than trying to get rid of a virus or messing up your system.
