i tried the previous version - no connect-
i disabled the firewall, nothing
i hooked directly thru the cable modem bypassing router, still nothing
reinstalled several times deleting everything on pc....i even reload IE- I'm at a loss; when i go to preferences the bottom of the box says internet connection is dial up and won't allow me to change this or the country- these are greyed out
i have cable connection
message: you have been signed out because you signed in on a different computer or device is what i get whenever i go to log in...almost like a timeout

Do you have a firewall? A firewall may not allow messenger to connect. The windows firewall shouldn't cause any trouble, but just as a precaution, download the latest updates from Microsoft, by going to start>All Programs>Microsoft Update.
There is also a slight possibility that you have a virus.

I've been having problems with yahoo messenger with beta, so has my friend.
I've still been able to get on though. Try changing you're connectiion settings if you have a firewall running and set it to firewall without proxy (I think that's the one... it'll tell you when open it up).

Try checking your firewall settings. If this doesn't work, try to uninstall the software, scan your computer for viruses and spyware/adware and try reinstalling messenger.
