How to download the new version of Yahoo IM?

I would like to download an older version of yahoo IM to my new computer with windows 7, is this possible!?

  • I am attempting to get older mail archive retrieved since I had to reload IM onto my new computer. I had loaded the new IM but did not get my message archive back! Thanks

  • Answer:

    Up to Version 11 Archives were stored on the C drive of the machine the chat was made from. Version 11 stores the Archives on the Yahoo Servers so they are available from any machine If you have access to the old machine I suggest you install version 11 on it (Opting to export existing messages during the set up) and then do the same on your new machine If you still want an older version - try here http://www.filehippo.com/download_yahoo_messenger/

the Archive was only set for the previous version of your IM. so if re-install it, those archive were gone and you have to make a new again this time for that messenger!
