    SO you went into add/remove programs and uninstall yahoo 8, Also go into c:/program files and delete the yahoo folder.

    Go to any website of yahoo and click on messager

    If you want 7.5 here is the canadian verison
    http://www.freewebs.com/5canadian/msgr75ca.exe

    When you download anything always click save to and put it in folder of your choice so you know it's there.

    In internet explorer opitions go to advanced
    HTTP 1.1 settings both boxes should be check

    Use TLS,SSL 2.0,3.0 all should be check

    Show friendly HTTP and URLS should be check.

    Programs check box internet explorer should be default browser.

    Also go to security click on custom level, Look for downloads make sure it's enable push ok and yes you want to change

    Push apply/ok.

    When you say you "reformat" your computer.
    Are you actually running the command "format /U" ?
    Or are you referring to the process of installing recovery CD's?
    Note that although some recovery CD's do reformat the drive, many do not. They simply install over existing installations.

    Since I did not see you report the actual error messages you are receiving, unless I missed it. What is the exact error?

    Have you after reinstalling your OS, run scandisk thorough? Since you stated now that your getting an error with different programs. Sometimes, you can have a bad disk sector which will cause an error.
    After reinstall, then run scandisk. It can take a very long time to check for bad sectors.

    If all else fails, maybe you might consider going with an alternative to Yahoo Messenger. Try GAIM, which is a multi-protocol messenger. You will still be able to use the Yahoo IM service, but without needing the Yahoo software

    Default Can I keep list & arcives going backward

    Someone clicked yes for me when Yahoo wanted to upgrade (found how to shut off the ugrade notice, only after) and now I'm stuck with a version I do not like with features missing or not wanted.

    Downloaded the version I want to install but get the message box about having a newer version and I need to uninstall then reinstall the older version.

    My problem is I have a contact list and archives that I need to be able to access in the reinstalled older version. How can I get them back into their lists & archives. Do I need to backup these files before the uninstall and restore them after reinstalling, or is there another way to do this, or do those files remain in place?

    just want to be back at the version I like and stay there.
