Whats wrong with Yahoo?

i just downloaded Yahoo messenger and seems it makes my surfing a disaster. somehow i cant seem to open search pages in a new window. it always endup replacing the ones i have and no more history(cant go back to the search button) is this a possible bug? or some of the nasty components they put in it?

It's Yahoo! Doesn't that say enough? Just go with Msn Messenger

Its easier to list the good things than go through the faults.

whilst we're on it, how do you get rid of the yahoo and msn toolbars? i've got like 3 search fields stuck to my windows. one default, one msn, one yahoo.

and no it doesn't turn my surfing experience into a disaster.. then again their 100mb inbox is sort of attractive..

@kimk:

@Wizard: I don't have a problem with Yahoo!. I just don't like the Messenger bit.

Anyone who installs toolbars of any description deserve to be shot . Don't say I didn't warn you.

Depends on her age If that's between 15 and 18, she doesn't have to be shot

Griff - Bah, the only good thing is that it has a pop-up blocker, and you can get better results with a decent firewall anyway.

Arania - 22, eh? She should know better. Hmm, but then she's an Australian "sheila", so maybe not .

My friend has 8 FRIGGING tool bars, and he thinks they keep
him safe, the problem is #, thatmy friends dont know much
about computers, but they think they do, he set up windows
so that once a d/l or install has finished, it bleeps, and he has
no firewall, no AV or anything, and he's got broadband, tell me?

does he deserve to be shot?

I know my sig is a girl.
