    "Best thing ever for Windows 95 users!!!"

    September 16, 2004  |  

    Version: Yahoo Essentials 1.0

    Summary

    This is the solution to those who are trying to download Yahoo! Messenger but can't download it because it is too new for Windows 95. This is an older version that CAN be downloaded and THEN updated to the newer version! It worked for me and now I can talk to all of my friends and family members(even my step-brother in Iraq)!!! There are no problems with this downlaod unlike some others say! They just are to stupid to figure out that it CAN be updated/upgraded to the newest version of Yahoo! Messenger! (If you have any questions e-mail me at superpro_07@hotmail.com)

    "Vastly superior to AOL IM"

    November 21, 2003  |  

    Version: Yahoo Essentials 1.0

    Summary

    Yahoo messenger splits AOL IM and ICQ's collective skulls with a mountain sized hammer. You can IM people offline so they can get your message when they get back online plus use it in combination with other Yahoo features.The IMvironments are fun as well. I used to prank Yahoo chat rooms for fun back in 97 when they first started being a portal but Yahoo is pretty quick about catching stuff like that if enough people complain. My ONLY complaint is it doesn't work with Opera or other Mozilla based browsers but a fix is on the way.

    "Still Pleased with Yahoo"

    November 5, 2002  |  

    Version: Yahoo Essentials 1.0

    Summary

    I still enjoy the services I receive from Yahoo despite the corporate take over and though I cannot access my mail with POP3 for free anymore. Bulk mail sorting has improved my e-mail experience immensely and being able to use Yahoo as my Default Mail service takes care of other mail programs being accessed on my computer by web mailto: links.

    Yahoo Companion is the best link bar I've ever tried. Least intrusive too.

    "It is compatible with Windows XP"

    August 21, 2002  |  

    Version: Yahoo Essentials 1.0

    Summary

    Anyone having problems should dig for solutions before posting that it doesn't work with something.
    I have XP and it runs fine. This is a nice complement for those that love Yahoo! It makes everything easily accessible.

    "Not compatible with Windows XP"

    June 18, 2002  |  

    Version: Yahoo Essentials 1.0

    Summary

    This software package says that it is compatable with "all" Windows versions. Although after downloading, I found that it was NOT compatible with Windows XP. All features still work including instant messaging, webcams, and chat rooms. Although, if you are using any sort of graphics, you will not be able to see the graphics in Windows XP.
