I'm back "home" in Wisconsin for the week, and I'm trying to help my aunt set up Yahoo Messenger on her computer with a Vista operating system.

We were trying to download Yahoo Messenger for her computer, and it seemed "stuck" ... so, my question is simple: Is Yahoo Messenger & Vista compatible?

Thanks!

~Sue

Initially no, but I believe the latest build SHOULD work in vista
