I want to connect to Yahoo messenger through a Java API. I'm using the jYMSG API, but now I'm not able to connect to Yahoo messenger as I'm getting the error "Use updated version". I'm using the jYMSG 6 API. What should I do?

+1  A: 

Just googling for "jymsg" seems to suggest that the current version is about 10. This is also consistent with the error message. You should do what it says: use a newer version.

I m not able to find new jar file

A: 

Go to the jymsg homepage, click the "Downloads" link on the left side and there's a file called "ymsg_code_jars_v0_64.zip" which I assume contains the JAR's you're looking for.

Yahoo changed the messenger protocol and jYMSG API seems to be a dead project.

Look at http://sourceforge.net/projects/openymsg/ which is a fork of jYMSG.
