I just want my mail as it was originally! I don’t want any more adds etc! I use Yahoo Mail for mail and nothing else. I have had it for several years, ten or more and want to keep it that way! Thank you.

I want to thank Daniel for his advice on how to shut off that prompt. Every site I went to said “tick the box” but I had no box to tick. You should get a job with yahoo, Daniel!

@brett and ervin …
re: “are you sure you want to sign out of Yahoo Messenger”

I was having the same frustration — the check box was not appearing in my dialog box. But I figured out how to make it appear: Go to Preferences –> General. In the last section, make sure to check the box, “Sign out of Messenger when I close the main window.”

Now, when you close, the dialog box WILL have the check box for “ask on exit.” Uncheck the box. After doing that, you can go back and uncheck the “sign out of Messenger” box. (Or leave as is. Doesn’t matter.) I tested this and it works.

Personally I think we all should quit using Yahoo products and move on to something else. That way they would either have to fix the flaws or get out of business. A lot of this bullsh_t is just a way for them to see how the public will react to a certain situation. My saying is if its not broke don’t try to fix it. Just leave it like it is.

I saw the Yahoo Toolbar under Custom Insall and didn’t take it.If you noticed you have no choice but to let Yahoo give you Automatic Updates.It says it is required and I don’t even let Microsoft give me automatic Updates.I check to see what updates are available and choose the ones I want or need.Also why is the new Yahoo Email being pushed on us.I like the Yahoo Classic.I have to login under 4 different links and Yahoo goes to the new mail.I get the hanging hourglass and have to end the program.It says program Yahoo Email not responding.It takes awhile to get to my Yahoo Classic Email That works without freezing up.

people are talking nonsense.. if you dont want any programs installed by yahoo, then why dont you just uninstall them? It’s not yahoo to blame. it’s us who dont know much about computers.
