"This is terrible"
Version: Yahoo Toolbar 7.0.5
Pros
Nothing good.
Cons
The toolbar has only five icons (I use Firefox)
Summary
This is a horrible mistake. Please go back to the old toolbar!!
Inaccuracies still plague the toolbar. If you click on their basketball icon, you get good old error 404. Fortunately this can be rectified. All-in-all the smaller icons give the user room to enter more icons and that is certainly for the best and can read them even though I am extremely near-sighted.

I'd say it's a change for the better. -

"Very handy tool upon start up of PC"
Version: Yahoo Toolbar 7.0.5
Pros
Saves hassle of checking for updates,and location of where to find them.
Cons
None apparent as yet
-
"Locks the Yahoo bookmarks within the toolbar"
Version: Yahoo Toolbar 7.0.5
Pros
Easy to install.
Cons
My bookmarks are all on Yahoo bookmarks. Without any warning, Yahoo bookmarks got "upgraded" and now I cannot access my bookmarks without installing the toolbar. What is so cool about Yahoo bookmarks are exclusively on Yahoo Toolbar. It just means that you have to install this junk software.
This is crap, especially if one does not have administrator rights to install the toolbar. Honestly, I think this is just another spyware carefully repackaged to look harmless.Summary
I regretted using Yahoo bookmarks and did not do a backup before it got "upgraded".
One would be better off using Google Chrome bookmarks. -

"Too flashy"
Version: Yahoo Toolbar 7.0.5
Pros
uhhh, ebay and weather buttons? Oh wait, we had those before. No pros that weren't already there with the old toolbar.
Quit fixing something thst isn't broken.Cons
Sucks, I wish I had the option to downgrade, I was fine with the old toolbars look.
Bottom line: Right-click "Open in new tab" I DON'T NEED A FULL PREVIEW OF MY MAIL RIGHT THERE .WHY EVEN HAVE A SEPARATE SITE THEN? -
"Unstable, Unsave,slow"

Everythings else that excludes popularity.

"HORRIBLE; CONSTANT HARASSMENT"
Version: Yahoo Toolbar 7.0.5
Pros
has all the convenience of a toolbar
Cons
it flashes a box upon closing that asks you to make yahoo your home page. And it wants to make yahoo your browser. And it has a little box that says' never ask me this again' and when you check it, it comes back next time anyway.
Summary
I uninstalled the Yahoo toolbar because I got tired of being harassed. But the reminder box kept coming back. So I went inot my registry and deleted anything that looked like it might be related to this reminder. I guess I missed it. I can't get rid of it. The tool bar is gone but the box keeps trying to make yahoo my browser and my homepage. Boy am i sorry. It appears every time i change from web site to another. Unless you know how to get into your registry and delete those fragments I'm referring to, don't install this thing.
