I'm trying to use Yahoo Messenger 11, but whenever I try to open it by clicking the application icon on my desktop I'm getting following error:

C:\Program Files(x86)\Yahoo!Messenger\YahooMessenger.exe The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect.Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail.

I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium.
