#214216 - 06/09/08 03:39 PM Vista & Yahoo Messenger
ADWOFF member Registered: 06/06/06 Posts: 165	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
