Why can't I install Yahoo messenger?

This is what comes up EVERY TIME!

"i/o errer occurred while installing a file. This is normally caused by a bad installation media or a corrupt installation file.

Could not load the DLL library C:\WINDOWS\KERNEL32.DLL An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format"

Well do you just need to use Yahoo to Instant Message i believe you can use Trillian if you like.

Its not the same but you can use AIM,Yahoo & MSN
