How long does a Yahoo account go "inactive" before they delete it?

My daughter has a yahoo messenger account and I want to delete it. How do I go about getting that done?

  • I want to delete my daughters account. How ca I do that?

  • Answer:

    Unless she's willing to hand over her PASSWORD, then there is NO way to erase the account. The best you can do is to erase the Messenger program from your computer - and set yourself up as the Administrator (assuming you're using Windows), and prevent her from installing any new programs ;););)

Thats kind of rude. Why don't you talk to her instead of making her think you are some sort of psycho mom from hell?

Do you want to delete her entire yahoo account or just uninstall messenger? TO DELETE HER ENTIRE YAHOO ACCOUNT: Yahoo! members can remove their own accounts and account information from Yahoo!. Please follow the instructions below to initiate the deletion of your account. By terminating your account, you will lose access to your Yahoo! ID, Yahoo! Mail, and profile names. We will also delete your account data and settings across the Yahoo! network. This includes any contents in: Yahoo! Mail Yahoo! Address Book Flickr Yahoo! HotJobs GeoCities Yahoo! Briefcase My Yahoo! Yahoo! Groups Finance Portfolio Any other area of Yahoo! that can only be accessed with your Yahoo! ID and password Please be sure you want to delete your entire account as you will not be able to reactivate it after the account has been deleted. You are always welcome to sign up again for a new account. Terminating your Yahoo! account does not alter or delete your Yahoo! People Search listing, which you need to edit or delete yourself. If you are subscribed to any premium services, we recommend that you first cancel those premium services before you delete your account. If you do not delete your Premium Services before deleting your Account, you will continue to be billed for your premium services. To cancel your current subscriptions, visit Yahoo! Billing Information for your account, choose the "My Services" tab, and click the "Cancel" link for each subscription. To remove your entire account, please visit our Account Deletion page. You will be asked to sign in to or verify your password for the account you wish to delete. Please be sure to read the next page carefully, as important information about your account is included. You can then confirm the deletion of your account. If you're having trouble signing in, you can get password help on the password problems page. Please complete the deletion process only if you are certain you would like to remove your entire Yahoo! account and any features you have personalized within the account. After the deletion process is initiated, your Yahoo! account can never be recovered. ______________________________________… To simply delete messenger : click start button (bottom left side of screen) go to settings control panel go to add or remove hardware find yahoo messenger hit delete. it will auto -uninstall..this will allow her to just use yahoo but not messenger.
