Why does Yahoo Messenger mess up my computer?

Yahoo Messenger Sucks.... Have This Happen To You??

  • I only downloaded Yahoo for the simple reason of communicating with my friends... I advance to going in chatrooms and blasting my favorite music on mic: It was great until the weridos, the creeps, and the freaks, started to IM me. I block them and for some Odd and completly freaky circumstance most of the werid people are not in my Ignore box when i check! Their still IMing me... This creeps me out, is there some glich in Yahoo messenger w\voice system the reason why I cannot block theses people? Also im wondering how safe is Yahoo! Messnger anyway? One of my friend complain about guys IMing her asking her to show her cam... and others threatening her saying their going to mess her computer up and all of her friends computers Is this possible? I feel hackers can get inside peoples computer, using Yahoo messenger. I just havent found out how. So have any of you guys out there experience this: Threats from "hackers", or weridos not showing up in your ignore box?

  • Answer:

    Change your yahoo preferences to only allow people on your friends list to im you and invite you. That will stop all ims except those on your friends list. It has nothing to do with voice. To stop from hearing and seeing people in a chat room you put them in your ignore bin in the room

Get rid of it. I had nothing but trouble with the stupid thing. It is very invasive. I had to go into Add/Remove to get rid of it.
