The closest thing we do offer like that is the Messenger sidebar that's part of Yahoo! Toolbar. When you have Yahoo! Toolbar installed (and visible in your browser) and you're signed into Messenger, click the Messenger button on the Toolbar and choose "Open Sidebar". This will tuck your Messenger contact list in the sidebar of your web browser. You can then see who's online and start an IM from there. It's not the desktop sidebar that you're suggesting but a similar concept. You can get Toolbar at: http://toolbar.yahoo.com Thanks, Sarah Bacon Hi Todd - I don’t know of any plans for a feature like that; it’s a great suggestion.

Just wondering if there are any plans in the works for Messenger to be viewed as a sidebar, i.e. parked at either side of the screen - and the other maximized windows would fit neatly next to it? I think the option would be appreciated by those of us who like things more organized (and always visible - but not always on top). Thanx. Sarah,

Inc. REFERENCE: Chat room lag Dear Sirs/Madams, It has become clear to this user that the problem switching chat rooms, in as much as lag time is concerned, has been resolved. It is refreshing to use this service when said service is in a state of good repair. Having been on the brink of passing Yahoo Messenger off as just another piece of clutter, I was pleased to see chat room functions working properly when I logged in last Thursday. Allow me at this time to say thank you. It has come to pass that on certain days, when I have time to spare, I enjoy chatting it up a bit in Yahoo Chat. Usually just an hour or two a day, sometimes longer on Sunday. It passes the time when I'm bored. I will maby investigate all the "bells & whistles" now that I can log in and switch chat rooms to find one I like in a timely manner. It now feels like way back in the day when I first started using Yahoo Messenger in 2003 with version 5.6. As for myself I can live with a few rogue spam-bots. I don't think anyone could get rid of them entirely with the free service you provide. I imagine someday you all will figure out a way and be the model of how to run spam-bots out of internet chat rooms. Remember, too, that with all the hubbub about internet chat rooms, and the "stigma" sometimes associated with those that frequent them, that we ARE NOT ALL SICKO. Look at the Health & Wellness room category. Lotta cancer patients keeping united there. Hobbies & Crafts keep people connected with good ideas. I have conjured up more than one recipe from the food rooms. Again, thank you for fixing the chat room lag problem. TO: Yahoo! Inc.

When resizing the Yahoo! Messenger conversation window, the window recalls its size settings if it is closed and reopened. For example, if you stretch it out horizontally or vertically, it remembers that size. However, if you make it compact (shrink it horizontally so the yahoo search bar disappears) it forgets its size and resets to the default. It also leaves a cosmetic issue on the title bar, a remnant of the search bar form I suppose. Is this a bug or intentional behavior to push Yahoo Search?

May I suggest getting your decisions straight? You fix it, then you unfix it, then you fix it again. :)) What gives? Anyways, thanks for making Bumping/Brute Forcing go 6 feet under again... Any Y!Necromancers around to bring back from the dead? Yea, I thought not. I wonder how long the fix will last this time? P.S. Thanks Yahoo. :D Seriously, I mean it. :> Thanks to Yahoo for fixing the dropped packets issue once again. May I suggest getting your decisions straight?
