is suspect your problem is nt4

nt4 is really not intended for typical use, and it is no longer actively developed. To expect a beta version written for working in xp is, well, ambitious.

The shell32.dll file is going to be completely different, and I would not be surprised if the yahoo messenger beta takes advantage of some .Net function...and winnt does not support .Net completely
